Speaker advice

ATC. SCM20 PSLT… would definitely be on my shortlist in this price and performance category.

I have the possibility to buy a pair of ATC SCM40A it would mean dispensing with my 250 NC . My question is would ATC SCM40 Passives with the 250 sound better than the actives.

I have 40 passives with an NC250, and I am very happy with the combination. I don’t think this combination is better or worse than the active 40s, just different. I suggest you listen to both and go for what you prefer.

Wow, that’s a lot of speakers to run off one amp - do you connect using a combination of series and parallel so the final impedance is ok?

Just to close off the search-I bought the ATC SCM40a’s. After listening to Splendors and the new Linns, the 40A’s sounded superb in my room. I have always been more preoccupied with words and emotion than heavy base so these were are revelation overall . Perhaps the Splendor 8.2 were a little more defined on clarity but overall outperformed by the 40A’s

Thank you to all who assisted with advice throughout the thread.

It’s one hell of an amp though…:rofl:
