If they’re active they'll go input > digital crossover > possibly signal processing > amplifier per speaker > speaker. If not they'll be analogue the whole way. They do both active and powered speakers, but their website isn't the best, easiest way to tell is if they've got speaker cable terminals on the back if they do they're powered if they don't they're active.
+1 on Edifiers.
I bought some new Edifier S1000DB for about £140 as a short-term solution, and was shocked at how good they are for the price. Definitely lacking in some areas, but once on stands and connected to a reasonable phono preamp, they sound decent and are very practical (bluetooth). Look smart for the money as well.
