The thing that smacks you in the face with these speakers first is the way music is\u00a0<strong>exquisitely integrated and balanced.\u00a0<\/strong>Like music you\u2019d take to a desert island akin to Radio 4\u2019s\u00a0<em>Desert Island Discs,\u00a0<\/em>these are really a pair of speakers that represent the best of what is easy to live with.<br \/>\n&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Ok so you sometimes risk credibility to sceptics by giving such positive praise. But I\u2019ve no compunction flouting the praise of these speakers and being confident doing so, such is how shudderingly brilliant they are.\u00a0<em>Caliban\u2019s Dream\u00a0<\/em>by\u00a0<em>Underworld<\/em>\u00a0on The\u00a0<em>London Olympics 2012<\/em>\u00a0soundtrack sounds enveloping like nobodies business and the bass line reflects how realistic these speakers can be.

Neither with binoculars or a magnifying glass, just as things normally are and look\u2026.

There isn\u2019t the same in your face pitch as with some high frequency adjusted speakers, but this high octane treble test track assesses electronic cymbals. Neither are they excessive or undeveloped, and come across assuringly in centre ground again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>As sure to that soul churning experience you get after listening to speakers of this quality, the pleasing mouth popping sound as you turn them off if the final peg of thinking, \u2018God I want a pair\u2019. 13th Note performers unhesitatingly and unflinchingly!<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Simon Price, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.13thnote.net\/2020\/03\/06\/integration-with-atc-scm40a-review\/?fbclid=IwAR26IoE5hBbt4GXCDxty3_ccxSVC_K6mgo0u-vpgABbroRPPMYiLfoVVzKg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">13th note<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Product information: <a href=\"http:\/\/atcloudspeakers.co.uk\/hi-fi\/loudspeakers\/entry-series\/scm40a\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ATC SCM 40A<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following concerted listening over a week I highlight the main sonic USPs in bold, as&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23735,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[171,174],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
