I think everyone should at least hear ATC speakers. They do midrange unlike any other speaker I’ve heard, in a good way, and as we all know most of music lives in the midrange. That’s quite a system your wife has put together. You married well!
Review ATC SCM20PSL monitors 50 hours listening
My wife's system under construction consists of a Rega Apollo R CD player, Luxman 509X integrated and new ATC SCM20PSL monitors! In burr magnolia. They are gorgeous! All electronics sitting on an IKEA two shelf bench. I did mention system under construction....before anyone flames. That shelf will be corrected with a Quadraspire SVT stand. Okay?
Even in this incomplete phase with the monitors sitting on no name massed 29" stands, they are incredible. The Luxman grabs hold of them firmly and just drives them. All control. The ATCs are really quick, image well without completely disappearing and have controlled slam. Nicely extended highs, beautiful midrange and tight bass easily revealing acoustic bass timbre. One can easily differentiate between Eddie Gomez, Edgar Meyer and Charnett Moffett.
She is having great fun with it even if Bon Jovi recordings mostly sound, well, marginal to be honest. Heresy I say, but it's her system.

I’m gonna be sorry I replied to this, but @kenjit what speakers do you actually like? If you’ve never seen an ATC midrange driver out of the box then you’ve no idea what makes them special, and since your ears appear to be failing you maybe you should take a look at an ATC driver. The magnet structures of their midrange drivers are larger than the woofer drivers in many speakers. BTW, there are no measurements to prove your superiority either. I’ll take your uninformed comments for exactly what their worth. Nada. |
