| ATC SCM 100 VS. Vandersteen Model 5's Since only one response, I'll take a shot. Vandersteen maybe better at soundstaging. Seems many studio monitors don't soundstage that great. But that's not the same as "sweetspot" and ATC's are acceptably good. ATC should be more dynamic, especial... | |
| Time for a total system upgrade For non-fatiguing try the Vienna Acoustics line. Easy to audition at Tweeter's etc. Beware, B&K is said to be bright -dunno, I haven't compared.Mission and ATC are also less fatiguing. ATC may be hard to find but a league ahead of mission for ... | |
