Integrating active subwoofers designed to operate ‘free-standing’ into control rooms designed for flush/ in-wall monitoring can be a challenge, but the SCS70iW Pro (In-Wall) is dedicated to this application, simplifying installation, and ensuring optimal performance. Featuring a shallower cabinet and recessed input connector panel it maximises floor space while the accompanying R1-300 Pro remote mounted 7U/19” amplifier offers the user the flexibility to install the amplifier in-wall close to the subwoofer, in a control room rack or in a machine room. Connection between the in-wall sub and remote amp is via NL4 speaker cable and 5-pin XLR cable (sold separately & available in multiple lengths).

The ATC passive SCM20P PRO Mk2 studio monitors present an affordable opportunity for home and project studios to experience the advantage of ATC’s superior performance. Used by world-class studios, engineers, artists, and post-production facilities, the SCM20P Pro Mk2 is a passive hybrid design incorporating a 6″ bass/mid driver with a 3″ soft dome for midrange assist. The woofer magnet assembly features ATC’s super linear magnet technology, which dramatically reduces third-order harmonic distortion by 10-15dB between 100HZ-3kHz. The result is a significant improvement in detail, clearly revealing ambient sounds and low-level effects, previously hidden. The SCM20P PRO Mk2 features a conventional cabinet for easy placement on any meter bridge (ATC recommends using stands behind the meter bridge for better performance).

As multi-channel systems increases in popularity, it is easy to forget that the basic stereo pair of speakers at the front of the listening area remains an essential element. Existing libraries of recorded music, the commitment of recording companies to stereo in its current form, and the new high resolution digital two-channel formats indicate that stereo will continue to be the main source of recorded music for the foreseeable future. For these reasons ATC still regards the main stereo speaker pair as the foundation on which a high performance multi-channel system can be built. The new innovative T16 two-way active monitor is an ideal way to establish that foundation. The SCM150ASL Pro is a further development of the SCM100ASL Pro, substituting a larger 375mm Super Linear bass driver, increasing the enclosure size to 150 litres. The result is extended bass, greater headroom and even more dynamic range.

As an all-new design, the SCM12 Pro proffers ATC’s acclaimed performance at a lower price point without compromising component quality and achieves this in a more compact, installation-friendly footprint ideally suited to nearfield monitoring as well as multichannel music and post-production applications.

Both models feature ATC’s renowned drive units, hand built in its UK facility. Of particular note is the new SH-25-76S 25mm/one-inch soft dome tweeter, the first to be designed and built by ATC, and the result of six years of research and development by Managing Director Billy Woodman and R&D Engineer Richard Newman. “The tweeter is designed and built with the same no-compromise philosophy as all other ATC drive units,” notes Newman, before continuing: “The design takes notes from the highly-regarded ATC midrange dome by utilising a dual-suspension design, negating the requirement for Ferro-fluid, and avoiding the detrimental effects of this drying out over time, a feature considered to be of utmost importance for longterm consistency.” The massive neodymium motor with heat-treated top plate is optimised to ensure an extended frequency response (-6dB @ 26kHz) and low non-linear distortion. The geometry of the waveguide is designed for optimum dispersion and made from a precision-machined alloy so that the entire structure is extremely rigid and free from resonances.The bass/mid driver used in both loudspeakers is ATC’s proprietary 150mm/six-inch Super Linear device. Constructed with a 75mm/three-inch voice coil and a short-coil, long-gap topology, it combines the high-power handling and low-power compression usually only found in large, high-efficiency systems with the fine resolution and balance of modern high-fidelity systems. Unique to the drive unit is ATC’s Super Linear technology, which, by employing specialist materials in the magnetic circuit, reduces third harmonic distortion in the lower midrange.The electronics in the active design have also had considerable development time invested in them, resulting in reduced noise and distortion (a further -10dB @ 10kHz) and a reduced operating temperature for improved reliability. The amplifier design is a revised version of ATC’s discrete MOSFET Class A/B design with 200W and 50W continuous power available for the bass and high frequency sections, respectively. The user controls have also been improved over the previous generation with more flexible input sensitivity controls and a revised low frequency shelf control to help achieve good balance in difficult acoustic conditions. The amplifier includes protection circuits for both DC offset and thermal overload.The cabinet has been restyled to more closely follow the larger monitors in ATC’s professional range and is constructed from heavily-braced MDF. Highly damped, elastometric panels are bonded and stapled to the cabinet’s inner walls to suppress cabinet panel resonances, while the enclosure’s front panel is heavily radiused to reduce cabinet diffraction, improving the frequency response and imaging. The loudspeaker can be wall mounted via a K&M 24120 Wall Mount (available separately). Note that the cabinet requires modification to accept the ‘top-hat’ mount.Ideally suited to critical nearfield listening applications in all control rooms, LCR surround monitoring in small-to-medium control rooms, and surround channels in medium-to-large control rooms, anyone looking to seriously improve their reference nearfield monitoring experience surely owe it to themselves and their studio setup to take a listen to the SCM20ASL Pro (V2) and/or the SCM20PSL Pro in action? EQ, balance, and edit faster, with more consistent results and reduced listening fatigue using the latest reference nearfields from ATC.

The SCM45A Pro is a completely new design, yet shares many features with its smaller sibling, the highly-successful SCM25A Pro three-way, compact active loudspeaker. As a mid-size, three-way design that can be used in near- or mid-field positions, the SCM45A Pro perfectly fills a gap in ATC’s high-performance, professional active studio monitoring loudspeaker range. It has high output and delivers extended low frequency for its size — and all without compromising the overall balance for which ATC is so well known.

Engineering the best speaker possibleHeavy science and engineering backs up every ATC product. These monitors aren't just cobbled together from parts that will work together. The ATC SCM25A Pro was thoroughly engineered to give you the best sound, response, and reproduction of your audio possible. You'll hear every change and every detail in your recordings. Hear the difference of truly engineered monitors with the ATC SCM25A Pro. Proprietary speakers offer life-like playbackGreat-sounding monitors start with great-sounding speakers. The ATC SCM25A Pro's low and mid drivers are manufactured to exacting standards at their in-house facility. Hand-wound voice coils are made from flat oxygen-free copper wire and operate in a precision long magnetic gap. Specially designed magnet vents not only reduce air flow noise and heat, but increase power handling and reliability. These drivers are designed to give you a smooth and even frequency response without built-in EQ. In short, the SCM25A Pro was designed to perform and sound better. The legacy of ATC monitorsA young engineer named Billy Woodman spent his younger days working side by side with some of the best speaker engineers of his day. In 1974 Billy went on to found ATC, Acoustic Transducer Company, and began building amazing-sounding speakers. Today ATC hand builds speakers one at a time to ensure the utmost quality and best sound. Billy continues to invent new drivers, new speakers and new ideas, giving you the best monitors in the industry. How good are ATC monitors? Just ask producers and engineers like George Massenburg, Chuck Ainley and Doug Sax. You'll also find them in Abbey Road Studios, Sony Studios New York, Blackbird Studios. and many more.
