What is the difference between an active and passive speaker?
An active speaker has an active crossover. A passive speaker has a passive crossover. A powered speaker has built-in amps, but an active speaker may have the amps built in or external. The crossover is the critical distinction.
wikipedia disagrees with your definition :P
