Looking at this page, I can't see any mains cable, so I don't think these are Active (self-powered) speakers.

May be, if you post a picture of what you got, someone might help you. Don't get blown up by "1000W" label

Edit: Found a manual here. Page 15 clearly says "passive, you need an amp".

Don't get bogged down by the jargons. ACTIVE=it has a plug that goes into the electricity. No electricity=PASSIVE.

You are confused because the speakers use Neutrik speakon connections that look a bit like TRS line level inputs.
Speakers have to have an external amp.
