• Hoping the audiophiles of lfgss can help me with an audio decision.

    I'm building an audio system for my living room based on a raspberry pi with volumio, and am faced with 2 (or maybe 3?) options:

    1. Digital audio converter with built in amp, wired to passive speakers
    2. Digital audio converter with no amp, wired to active speakers
    3. Digital audio converter, connected to external amp, wired to passive speakers

    I'm not sure number 3 is an option, I'm sure it is, but ultimately what I'm asking is, am I better getting an amp and using passive speakers, or not bothering with an amp, and using active speakers?
