Do a search on active speakers, you will find anything from computer systems over Quad 12L , http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/frr.pl?rspkr&1109030572&read&3&4&; to Dynaudio, ATC, http://www.britishhifi.com/atc/index.htm, PMC, http://www.avreview.co.uk/news/article/mps/uan/1514, PMC ALM-1 with Brystom amplification, http://6moons.com/audioreviews/pmc/aml1.html to active full range electrostatics by Audiostatic, http://www.audiostatic.com/default.html and hybrids by Martin logan, http://www.us.martinlogan.com/speaker_intro/purity.html http://www.enjoythemusic.com/Magazine/manufacture/0403/ And even IF some speakers do not have signal sensing auto power off (only the cheapest computer systems do not) the power used in stand by is trivial.
