ATC SCM7 vs. Proac Studio 110

So with the close wall positioning, the bottom octave of the ATCs will fill in quite nicely without boominess.

I agree - the roll off on a sealed box is less steep - so ultimately you can get some useful deep bass compared to the risk of "one-note" bass that sometimes comes with small efficient ported designs.

They won't be mounted directly to the wall, just to clarify.

They'll be on Target (the UK company) brackets which bolt to the wall and then you set your speakers on them. I have them installed now with Matrix 805's and the backs of the speakers are probably 5"-6" away from the rear wall.

I definitely think that the 805's are too large to be mounted that close to a wall, but the one with the good tweeter sounds good located that way.

Sorry to hijack this thread. Anybody know what is the difference between the older SCM7 and the current latest SCM7 model? The cosmetics are quite different between the two. Are there any substantial difference in sound quality, or both sound equally similar?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Easy one - just ask ATC - send an email to the link on their website.

Thanks Shadorne. I have sent them an email. The reason I asked is I heard the new ATC SCM7 is assembled in China while the old model in UK.
