help Emotiva B1+ FAQ
Is the Emotiva B1+ an amplifier or a passive speaker?
The Airmotiv B1+ is a passive two-way bookshelf speaker, not a desktop amplifier. It requires an external stereo amplifier or AV receiver and has no built-in parametric EQ or DSP.
What drivers does the Emotiva B1+ use?
Each cabinet combines a 5.25-inch woven-fiber woofer with an Airmotiv folded-ribbon tweeter. That tweeter design is a defining feature of Emotiva's Airmotiv speaker line.
Can the Emotiva B1+ be used as a home-theater surround speaker?
Yes, Emotiva designed it for either two-channel listening or use in an Airmotiv home-theater system. Owners commonly paired it with the C1+ center speaker and a powered subwoofer.
Why is the Emotiva B1+ difficult to find new?
The B1+ was discontinued as Emotiva refreshed its loudspeaker range. Remaining pairs are therefore usually found as used, open-box, or old-stock units.
