Have l become unstable?


I’ve always had nice audiophile quality gear and now I’m considering moving to something that’s capable of giving me an “auditory triple-bypass” if so inclined; the ATC 40 SCMA active paired with my JL e-110 sub.  I’m mostly not a volume listener, but find Buddy Guy too polite through Manley Mahi monoblocks and Merlin monitors.  Will I lose the great micro detail, imaging and sound stage depth I enjoy now?

Thanks for contemplative input.

Naim UnitiServe, Naim DAC 1, Shunyata Valhalla digital cable, Manley Neo-Classic pre with upgraded tubes to include Takatsuki 300B, Mahi Mahi monoblocks with upgraded tubes, Decware cabling, Merlin Black Magic monitors on Sound Organisation massed stands.

Hello Celtic,
    I'm listening to my ATC 40's right now, but in my case they are the somewhat unusual ATC HTS40's, the same as the SCM 40's but in an on wall configuration. Powered by an Accuphase E-470 with a pair of the small but tight JL Audio Dominion D-108's, they freakin' rock. What can I say? Sometimes I love to open them up and just get carried away. Today it's a selection of Reggae and holy crap, you can't go wrong with ATC if you get that occasional urge to hear some live music right in your own house. Get those ATC's and let us know what you think!
