Question: Does ATC have the best midrange driver?
They are not even Close to the best but they are common and very good! 
The usual suspects: S1, Cirrus, Tempesta, MMM1
The cirrus has an excellent cabinet but the MDF stands are killing me and you must have the stands because the x-over is stuffed into the base of the stand and i mean stuffed! Plus the owner is a grade A tool. 
Getting overtone in a pair of bookshelf speaker.
1800 hours of break in will improve them..then you can go out and buy some good speakers! 
Got my Berlin Mini's today
Berk,There was a speaker in the late 1980's ? with wooden internal chambers I cannot remember what it was called (Brand,model or designer) but it was very interesting the wood was not really a resonator but it must have resonated a bit? Otherwise,...

2K watt monos? Well how about focal Grand Utopia. I don't know how those monster monos sound at low levels could be sublime with one of the high-efficiency models you're asking about but you don't need high efficiency!!! You have the mother load o... 
Tannoy Westminister VS dc10 Instrument Grande V
Where did you hear about dc10audio? Both the Westminster and the Grande Voix are formal looking but the sound is quite different. Both speakers use a full range driver one a massive 15"FR only and the other has a 9" FR with a 15" bass unit and a t...
