gat474 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Looking to buy a pair of the larger ATC loudspeakers including: SCM40 SCM50 SCM100 SCM20SL actives as well I already have a pair of SCM20SL's, two pairs of SCM10 and a C4C centre. Love the ATC sound and looking for something with more of the same.
gat474 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Posted September 9, 2014 Time for the monthly post in this thread.
Guest Misterioso Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 SCM20SL actives as well A revised version (V2) of the active SCM20ASL Pro has been introduced a few days ago. Maybe a good time to check if the old version is available for a good price. By the way, do you know a Melbourne dealer who stocks the professional ATC range?
gat474 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Thanks for the info, I have seen the new 20 with the new big tweeter. There won't be stock of the old model in Aust as there was a period of 10 years where there was really no one importing them. The pro gear is imported by a Sydney company. I've been I touch with them, the pro gear is bigger and more expensive than the home models.
aasza Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Class A Audio has the SCM40's for $4900 http://classaaudio.com.au/index.php?id_product=16&controller=product

YCC Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Is there a substantial difference in sound quality between the old model and the new ones? I notice the old range is currently being discounted, so may be tempted! As usual, any comments appreciated as I'm pretty new to all this. cheers and have a nice weekend!
henning Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 The Class A price isn't all that special, they were selling new in Suydney for $4500. I haven't heard the new model, but the tweeter in the older 40's was nothing special (i owned a pair). The scanspeak used in the scm 50's and active 20's etc is far better so i'd imagine the new model is worth it. A friend of mine certainly thought so and plans to buy a new pair. He had the option of buying mine too
gat474 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 Time to revive this old thread. I have some new SCM40s but if a pair of 50's came up I would be interested.
henning Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Another revival? I have to say i'm very happy with my SCM50A's and won't be selling them. They work well with the Mytek dad dac, but they sounded even better with a friend's levinson No 39. There's still the old pair at Audioconnection now reduced in price yet again......
gat474 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Posted May 20, 2015 It was yours I had in mind when I revived this thread, was sort of hoping you were sick of them! The Audio Connection pair appear to have sold. I wouldn't have touched them, too old and a bit overpriced for age. Things have changed since I revived this thread, I decided I didn't really need another pair of speakers and bought a new camera instead. No regrets either, still love the current hifi system and listen to it every day. Camera's great too! 1
henning Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 I too have been rationalising gear. Not much enjoyment out of lesser stuff now that i have the 50's. Even the scm 10's we use in the front room sound so boring in comparison. Now to sort out the analog rig without spending much $$ and i'm done.
