-Dynaudio Confidence 30

I purchased the ATC SCM 19’s a couple months ago and they are breaking in nicely. If ATC has a house sound I personally would not describe them as lively, forward, or energetic. I would use terms like revealing, neutral, non-fatiguing.

Of the speakers mentioned on this thread so far, I think the Kef’s and Paradigm’s more closely match what you’re looking for.
