Did you ever find out? I agree, my ATC SCM40v2 need juice/current to sound good too. I have Hegel H360 which sounds great however due to the ATCs being inefficient I need to give it some volume for them to wake up and give me full range.
Luxman L-509X for ATC SCM 19v2/40v2, thinking integrated to start with
I like to listen to music at low to normal levels and wondering how Luxman L-509x will work or ATC SCM 19v2. I am considering starting with an integrated first and not go over $8k for amp and preamp.
Initially I wanted to try ATI AT6002 and a Tube preamp with good phono stage and the price seems to be somewhat close to a good used integrated amp.
Please suggest integrated with good phono stage and DAC less than $8k . Prefer 200w 8ohm output, but can settle for a bit less for good implementation.
