Sure, panel space is at a premium. That's why the choice was made. But 
it's a bad choice, for the reasons stated. The vast majority of AMPLIFIED 
loudspeakers have severe RFI problems. The appearance of specialized 
products like the West Mountain units are quite new, and a reaction to 
that reality. Their website says they come with a 3-circuit 1/8-inch 
JACK, so you still need a 3-circuit plug to plug patch cable.
