I have the passives, Which I love. I tilted them back a bit and took the edge off of the tweeter. Also, for low volume, I’m using a Loki, which is easy to flip on and off , and has absolutely no hum or noise or anything else. There’s plenty of information about this inexpensive EQ device from Schiit Online.
Review ATC SCM 40 A floorstanders.....finally
I thought I knew. I thought I knew all about imaging, dynamics, resolution, PRaT, all the audiophile buzz words allowing one into the coded audiophile secret society pontifications. I got schooled. It’s called ACTIVE. Everthing I’ve been yearning for has been solved with my new ATCs. They just do musical reproduction with immediacy. The attack is instantanious. Bad recording, bad reproduction. Great recording, great reproduction. Period. Fin. Ende.
I’ve progressed through some fairly serious talent. Great equipment I’ve enjoyed over the decades: always the journey, never having arrived at the ultimate destination. I do not know why it took so long to depart the traditional souce, preamp, monoblocks, cabling and transducers formula. I hope this encourages others to at least consider leaving the world of so many pieces and cabling.
System: Naim UnitiServe with unknown serious external PSU, Nordost Valhalla II digital cable, Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC, Manley Neo Classic preamp with Takatsuki 300B tubes. Decware ICs, Patrick Cullum Crossover II PCs, Furman IT Reference 15i power conditioner. All components sit on Quadraspire Reference X stand. Wireworld Silver Elipse 8 RCA to XLR interconnects from Manley 300B to ATCs. Isoacoustics Gaia II footers. I’m really there for now. Tchau
