The X-ray properties of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) support recent theories which unify the Seyfert 1 nuclei with the Seyfert 2's and radio-quiet quasars. In these objects, the underlying spectrum is strongly distorted by the effects of reflection from the accretion flow and by absorption in partialy ionized material. These obscure any intrinsic changes in the spectrum, making it difficult (though not impossible) to constrain the nature of the emission process. Conversely, there is no evidence for either of these spectral distortion in the radio-loud AGN, supporting the hypothesis that the X-rays are dominated by beamed emission from the relativistic jet.
