This is definitely one of those situations where you must simply go out and thoroughly audition both pairs of speakers and let your own ears be your guide. Happy listening.

Just came to me you might be addressing @audphile1 and not me. In that case; correct, sir. |
OP,the ATC SCM40A is an ACTIVE speaker..The B&W 803 D3 is a PASSIVE speaker.. |
Ran ATC SCM 40A for 3 years, then gifted them to a friend. They are fabulous and reveal each improvement made in front of and to them (Gaia ll footers). They do not like tube preamps IME. Tubes were too slow. They can be a bit merciless with bad recordings. They are not aggressive. Only revealing. Replaced them with ATC SCM 50A. Best of luck. |
