Hi Porky, my first post here. Funny thing is I entered this thread to see if anyone was posting about ATC speakers, yours was the very firt post lol. I have the ATC SCM 50 ASL Tower and it is very good. I've been a long time fan and have moved thru several models before settling on the active 50's, it works for my living room space. I like the no-nonsense philosophy of the company e.g. they are quite brutal with their specs reporting - on paper these speakers won't compare well against other speakers in it's price range, but when you read about how they derive the specs... no wonder the results are so unflattering. In real life tho, I've never heard tighter, "slammier" bass, mids are to die for. But as all my friends warned me, they like to be played loud - the term used is "realistic" volumes, this is when the ATCs come into their element. Oh also, with the actives, you take speaker cables out of the equation, now that's got to be a good thing. You may want to consider the connections tho, the amps take XLR connections.
