Speaker question

Ok, I have it narrowed down to Proac D30r’s and PMC TWENTY5.24i. I’m afraid the ATC and its low volume issue may rule them out. Maybe save for they’re actives one day.

Who is saying ATC's have issues last low volume?  That is utter crap and made up by someone who got a bad demo.  They don't have an issue.  

On the pro side of ATC, which uses the same drivers as consumer versions, a very specific BENEFIT (that is very easy to demo) is that they sound exactly the same at low level than high level (level meaning SPL level).  This is actually a rare skill and one that ATC prides itself on.  Mixers need this badly because no one can mix loud all the time without wearing yourself out.  You have to be able to turn it down and hear the same exact thing to work for 8-10 hours in front of speakers.  

I don't mind someone liking a different brand, that's fine, so it's not about a competing brand.  Using complete mistruths and stating them as a factual and well known issue is not right.  This "ATC's have a low level issue" is not true and a complete fallacy.  If you go to an ATC dealer they can prove it to you.

Wasn’t trying to rile anyone up. There are a lot of forums out there that tend to suggest the aforementioned. They are still on my radar. No way to demo, unless you would like to send a pair out to me😁

Sorry I was excited there.  DIdnt mean to blame you or pick on you.  Ive read this before but I can't figure out where it comes from becasue it is categorically not true.  It must some other problem attributed to the speakers- like maybe underpowered amps?  Other readers read these kinds of things and if no one says anything, they beleive its true.  Just trying to seet the record straight.

So, lone mountain, in your opinion the 227wpc in class d would be sufficient for the ATC’s and give generous spl at low volume? Wife goes to bed 3 hours earlier than I. Also, are they good for HT use? Thanks,Leon
