| Why not horns? I have yet seen or heard any speaker which can play loud with such low 0.3% THD. ATC claim this on their highest end designs such as the SCM300 while playing at 121 dB SPL (definitely loud). I am skeptical that they can actually achieve this down... | |
| Why not horns? The very best horn designs run at about 3% THD when played loud and this will distortion is audible and in treble. Conventional non-horn designs can play loud at 0.3% THD and often much lower in the treble - pretty much inaudible.You are talking a... | |
| General PC Audio Set-Up Question I use a LaCie 2TB 2big drive (two 1 TB drives in RAID 1) - after months of ripping CD's I decided I wanted backup. I also have a small portable drive. There are many ways to do it and they almost all work very well but my advice would be to ensure... | |
| Can Frequency Sweeps Damage Speakers? Provided you do not exceed 100 db SPL at 1 meter you should be ok for most well built full size speakers. Remember that the majority of expensive speakers actually use extremely cheap drivers (high quality veneer and woodwork can be very expensive... | |
| Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers "The Live Anthology" Take a listen.Absolutely awesome shuffle by Stan Lynch. | |
| Best active speaker Another factor you should look into is that ATC don't put a lot of emphasis on cabinet resonance control. The freestanding set of ATC's that Pink Floyd use have additional bracing inside. Many studios soffit mount them. What really bothers me is A... | |
| Best active speaker ATC specs are conservative (freestanding in open space). You certainly do not get "quantity" from ATC bass - their design is only about quality and approaching the performance of electronics in terms of distortion. The 150's are probably around 0.... | |

| Active speakers. What to choose? A deposit is your commitment for the dealer to hold an item for you. The dealer is within his/her right to keep it and offer you nothing else in exchange (unless you agreed differently up front). The fact the dealer agrees to sell you something el... | |
| Best active speaker how does genelec compare to atc?Put it this way, when George Massenburg built his latest studio (after 30 years as a renown recording engineer, equipment designer and university lecturer) he installed BOTH. Ninety tons of MDF were cut and milled t... | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. Joan's voice was haunting | |
| Best active speaker kers.ATC is very good but I must say very energy wasteful. The heatsinks are hot to touch even when not in use.I read in HDD forum according to AVIhifi founder which is an ex ATC engineer that he finds ATC outdated being that they are spending wa... | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. Nina was awesome | |
| Best active speaker Can't go wrong with ATC but you know that.Consider also Focal Twin 6 - a real bargain in active designs and obviously a step up from the passive electra 1007 (but you lose all that pretty and very expensive cosmetics for better sound and more expe... | |
| thank you shadorne 801 is a classic. I'd say that this speaker, more than any other, is what established B&W. |
