I always wanted a pair of the original AE1's but could never quite aford them back in the day. Now I find myself in the market for some compact speakers that will sit on a TV bench, not ideal but I'm not arranging my room around hifi like I have in the past. I am sorely tempted by the actives and Yamaha preamp. They look great, they review great and they are called AE1, what's not to like. Unfortunately I would be buying blind so to speak hence the question, if you have a pair what are your thoughts, what did you compare them to? Would you buy the same again? I do like rock and prefer an upfront presentation with puchy bass if that helps. I can always add a sub later if need be. Any input appreciated.
