What Color is your system
Rich black coffee with a small touch of cream and a pinch of sugar. Bitter, yet smooth, and leaves a hint of sweetness. 
ATC owners present and former
I started this hobby when i was in high school, and now, i am 24, and i think ATC may be my last stop for a while. Here are the speakers i used to own in no particular order,Monitor Audio Silver5i (still regret selling)HTD Level 3HTD Level 4 Wharf... 
ATC Speakers...Do you use them with Grill On/Off
oh...haha, i meant 4/5 of an inch. I dont think the speaker will even even sit right with 4-5 inches of lift. 
ATC Speakers...Do you use them with Grill On/Off
Pani..it worked for the soundstage height. Now voices seem to come from the top of my 61" TV on some materials. I did not notice a decrease or increase of sound tonality. Just better soundstage, and more holographic! I actually raised the front ap... 
ATC Speakers...Do you use them with Grill On/Off
I have my ATC SCM20 on 24" stands and always wanted them higher as the soundstage height is parallel to where the midrange hits (i read that on a review for the original 20s, and i can conclude that when the ATC are on a temporary 30" stands, the ... 
ATC Speakers...Do you use them with Grill On/Off
I use them with no toe in and grills on. It seems though as with the grill on, the sound is a bit natural and more controlled, though i do think at times i am missing some details. *this might be all in my head btw* hahaas for toe in, it makes the... 
ATC SCM's with Spectral Components
agreed with shardorne. If you listen to ATC on low levels, it feels as though the speaker is holding back, and the bass is quite lean. However, once it gets from moderate to loud levels, you be surprise how dynamic and full the sound is. I listen ... 
ATC SCM's with Spectral Components
i've demoed the SCM7 with the new enclosure in a store to see how the new tweeter and drivers sound. I have the original SCM20, and the difference was quite apparent. What shardorne said is exactly correct. I also want to add that the midrange on ... 
With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you
A used pair of ATC SCM100 active, and add a tube preamp on top of it! and pocket the rest of the money! 
ATC SCM 11 Vs SCM 19...Need immediate suggestion
thanks shardorne, that was what i meant, which is why I suggest people with ATC to get a tube preamp to round out the edges of so-so recordings, and still be able to hear enough details. A really well design tube preamp will give extra warmth to t... 
ATC SCM 11 Vs SCM 19...Need immediate suggestion
I suggest getting the SCM19 as they incorporate the 3" dome in their midbass. Even though they would make the speakers more revealing, that is what makes ATC so unique. The more revealing they are, the more it will show your upstream equipment's s... 
ATC scm 7,11,19 best position?
I prefer the ears at woofer level with my scm20. I have them about 6 feet from the back wall and approximately 3 feet from the side wall. It creates great depth and an infinitie soundstage. Like shardone said, i also do not toe in my speakers. 
Recommend speakers for a restaurant sound system
I have open several restaurants with my father, and we both are into hifi. However, like others said, unless its a club or a dinner theater, nobody is going to care. We normally install w/e ceiling speaker is the cheapest and most efficient. Howev... 
ATC scm 19 vs ATC scm 20SL?
One of the major difference b/t the 19 and the 20 is the tweeter. The older 20s uses a vifa tweeter and the newer 20s uses a seas tweeter. Both EXTREMELY revealing and very smooth, with the seas having a bit more detail (very hard to hear a differ...
