New ATC SCM19..!

[krolikgena]

i'm sure they sound fine, but what about looks? a curved brick with drivers. the old series were much more special to my opinion.. i guess with every product generation the design is getting much worse. just to mention the ugly Cyrus Lyric thing.

so frustrating, as i love both ATC and Cyrus..

Hi lpv

ATC's previous Entry Series of monitors are special

however so far the new curved monitors has hit their predecessors out of the park for a six :twisted: I feel this is set to continue

All the best

Hi Musicraft. Roll on Frank Harvey Hifi....

[other ATC dealers are available in the UK, but probably not as close as these 2...]

Hi The Mad One

I believe WHF did review SCM19 MK1 monitors.

Anyway curved SCM19 monitors are not available yet and no news on prices however at a guess around £2000 - £2200.

All the best

So what the benefits of a speaker enclosure having contoured sides, is it a standing wave elimination thang?

Yup, in May 2007 the SCM19s had a group test. Can't remember the outcome or what speakers they pitched them against, but they received 5 stars.

They were reviewed as part of a group system test at different price points. Partnering kit was Primare CD31 and I30. As pp says. 5 stars. Think one of the other systems was all Rega, can't remember the others. The review used to be on ATC's site, I think, but not available anymore.

 

[BenLaw]

Hmmm, Primare and ATC, who'd have thunk it.

Now now, let's not get ahead of ourselves with use of the plural.

Well, one has to keep optimistic.

Usually those 'One Make' tests are done in January of each year. I've just turned up the April 07 edition and it says "Next Month, speaker shoot out": B&W 805S and ATC.

So have you got May 07? I expect you to have them all filed in chronological order!

They're in the loft - I do, however, keep a few "scatter" editions downstairs, random mags from 2006 (1 or 2 per year), and that generally covers most bases.

 

[BenLaw]

Well we seem to have discovered a flaw in the system. And you're definitely stuck on only one use at the moment.

 

[plastic penguin]

Certainly not perfect, but it's good as a quick reference archive.

 

[Craig M.]

One of the few things I remember from the test is it was Primare themselves who asked for/recommended ATC. It was one of those 'one make system' tests, and obviously Primare speakers are a bit thin on the ground.

This is obviously one of those times a big stack of old mags in the loft pays off! About a year ago I threw out all my old mags, almost filled the recycle bin.

That's why I don't fling'em out, all tucked away in the corner of the attic. Proves hoarding can be useful. oke:

According to this yesterday, the release date for the new SCM19s and SCM40s is 16 December. Cutting it a bit fine for Xmas.

Come on, 2000-2200 GBP seems extremely overpriced to me. For that money you can buy a pair of Opals.
