ATC SCM7 vs. Proac Studio 110

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.

The cabinets on the new models do indeed look lower in cost to assemble than the older (German) cabinets. ATC make the drivers in house in the UK. They have always outsourced cabinet making - their strength is in engineering, designing transducers and manufacturing them - not wood work.
