New range of ATC (vs Harbeth) for Devialet

[audiokid]

Has anyone compared the new ATC 7, 11, 19? If so, what are your thoughts?

I currently have Harbeth M30.1 on a Devialet 110, which I absolutely love.

I was considering a second set of speakers to compliment the Harbeth M30.1. Has anyone compared Harbeth with ATC? Would the ATC 7 or 11 disappoint vs the Harbeth M30.1? Is the Devialet a good match for the 'difficult to drive' ATC?

Thanks

I wouldn't have thought the Devialet would have any trouble driving the ATCs, though I can't say I've tried it. I plan to hear the new SCM40s early next year. (I also use a Devialet.)

On the question of comparison of Harbeth and ATC, I know Mac (Macspur) has owned ATCs and now has Harbeth SHL5s. Maybe he'll chip in.

There's a thread here devoted to using (and finding speakers for) Devialet: http://www.whathifi.com/forum/hi-fi/the-devialet-thread

I've not heard the new range of ATC, but I used to have some SCM40's before replacing them for Harbeth SHL5 which I doubt I will be changing for some time.

If you can, try and get a home demo with some 19's, but if you're that happy with the 30.1, why change?

Thanks both, I'm not planning to change... Just considering a complimentary set of speakers.

In that case, you might like to consider ProAc or SF.

Hmm, I have tried proac before. I quite like the D2 but easily prefer the Harbeths. As for the SF, I have heard great things about them, and heard the Olympica very briefly but just don't like the flashy looks.

Has anyone heard the latest ATC range and can share their experiences?

Hi audiokid

ATC's new curved SCM19 and curved SCM40 passive monitors are now in production so these models should shipping within the next week or so. The new curved SCM7 and curved SCM11 passive monitors have been available since the beginning of August.

What would you like to know about the curved SCM7 and SCM11 monitors?

Merry Christmas

Hi, just wondering what the differences in sound are between the models, other than scale?
