Choosing between ATC or Emerald Physics


In the upgrade process of a secondary system for the living room, I'm planning to change the speakers. Actually the components are: a tunned Oppo as transport, Paradisea DAC, a recently arrived Wyred 4 Sound STI-1000 integrated amp, Opera Mezza bookshelves... the matching is excelent and the system sounds very, very good with the new amp.

Previously I selected 2 speakers: ATC SCM-19 and Emerald Physics CS3. Now I have to choose between them... any suggestions ??

The amp was selected thinking as able to fight with any difficult load, it has 570 watts in 8 Ohms, more than enough to drive the ATC's SCM-19.

That is more than enough power. Go for ATC if you like Dynaudio sound over laid back sound. The ATC will be me forward in the mids than the Dyn's and less bass but tighter sound.

"You stated "the system sounds very,very good". So why in the world would you change anything? This simply doesn't make any sense."

Huh??
Makes perfect sense to me.
Yep !!, the Operas are very good, and sounds musical, with great image and weight for his size... I know that the ATC's and the EP CS3 has a less laid back and forgiving nature, but I think both are more precise and real sounding speakers.
