Hi everyone.
I recently acquired some ATC scm19 mk1 and was reasonably happy with them using MF a3.2cr power amp (bi-amped with a3.5 integrated- yes I know, probably a waste of time- it was a temporary setup that became permanent). However, curiosity for the better of me and I bought an m6i to replace them. The idea was that the big MF amp might just take the edge off harsh recordings, as an alternative to ATC amplification.
The problem now is a simple one- much too much bass! I quite often hate the sound I am getting. I've spoken to ATC who expressed surprise, saying a more powerful amp should control the ATCs better with tighter bass. They directed me towards room treatment, which seems like a reasonable suggestion. Before I spend tons of money on bass traps etc. I would very much appreciate others' ideas/suggestions/observations. Has anyone out there tried this combination, with or without success?
Thanks in advance. ...
