Great answer

I agree wholly with your description of the sound of a good active stage. Even where gain is not an issue, and input and output impedance is not, in theory, an issue, I find that active stages have precisely the advantages you mentioned.

I tend to think that passives are often favored where the quality of the active stage is compromised (price or poor choice) but not where a really good and compatible active stage is being compared.
