no, they are passive (need speaker wire)

Pair with the Speedwoofer 10e [rslspeakers.com] ($300 shipped) to negate the shallow LFX and make sure you have enough amp power [crownaudio.com] for your listening distance.
Horizontal "evenness" is not bad, and vertical "evenness" is acceptable, so this would not be the best for critical listening + many different listening positions. But if you are working out in a home gym you are not quietly listening to musical details. It's rear-ported so if you are wall-mounting you want at least 1-2" of rear clearance to the wall.
RP-600M has a very poor response dip around 2kHz [spinorama.org] and then a overshoot after 4 kHz. I would not recommend, especially if you are pairing with a subwoofer (you should)
With EQ and a Klipsch R-121SW, I've achieved what I feel is very good frequency response.
KEF ones can go lower, negating the need for a sub for small listening spaces.
Q150s often go down to 350 retail and can be had as used for about 280 from best buy.
The Klipsch ones - I haven't seen them go below 300 mark in recent times. Accessories 4 less has the 600M used for about 300 in addition to the Adorama deal.
However Among the siblings, the rp-500 II sounds better than 600m II (as per Erin of Erin's audio corner) and kef Q150s sound better than q350s (as per a few on reddit, couple of Amazon reviews).
