Active ATC SCM-40

Now on demonstration…..

We have been offering passive ATC speakers for years, we thought it was time to offer the speakers ATC believe make the most of their considerable professional market knowledge, active speakers. The SCM-40A is the same driver / cabinet configuration as the lovely passive speakers we have been selling for many years, but with 3 power amplifiers and an active crossover built each cabinet. And if you want seemless performance from deep bass to finely honed treble, these speakers excel.

See the What Hi Fi review here.

“these ATCs… take all in their stride, revealing a lovely cohesion throughout the frequency range. Resolution, timing and dynamics are all spot-on… factor in the built-in amplification, exotically engineered in-house drive units and the resultant exceptional sound quality, and the SCM40As emerge as something of a high-end bargain. Consider us smitten.” What Hi-Fi, March 2015.
