| ATC active vs. passive I bought ATC scm40 and powering them with luxman 595, MASTERSOUND 845 and Grandinote Shainai integrated amp. I like the tonality and happy with low end. However, the tweeter is inferior to my Triangle Magellans. I’m still interested in ATC 50 and... | |
| ATC active vs. passive I'm leaning toward 150 passives. Part of this hobby is constantly playing and tweaking with components. What tube amp would pair well with ATC? I'm open to integrated as well. I doubt my current 50 and 100W tube amps will do justice on 150. I... | |
| ATC active vs. passive There isn’t a single dealer in the northeast that has ATC SCM50 or higher. I’ve auditioned most other brands ranging from 10-300k, none of them had the dynamics, timbre and accuracy of ATC except Avalon acoustics Saga. Those are the very best I’ve... | |

| ATC active vs. passive My tube amp is Auris fortissimo, 100W Push pull. I’m concerned it wouldn’t be enough to power SCM150 that I’m considering. I have a big room, I like to listen at high volume. I am in the position to buy anything ranging from 50 to 150 both passi... | |

| ATC active vs. passive @lonemountain appreciate the detailed response 1. I have a big room, 45 x 15 ft 2. listen to classical, piano and large scale orchestra at high volume 3. absolutely love tube sound and have the ability to bi amp a passive system if needed. I... | |
| ATC active vs. passive I love tube amplification and worried that if I get an active model I may not achieve the tube sound. I read that active amplification is superior for multiple reasons but would that trump the benefits of tubes? Would I regret actives in the long ... | |
