audio-talk

Just for clarification, ATC speakers were an essential part of studio monitoring in the 1970s up until the present.
Whether you use them or not, recordings held as benchmarks will probably have been tracked , monitored and mixed whilst using ATC speakers.

I remember Bill Woodman - had several phone conversations; gentle, polite and knowledgeable I finally plucked up courage to ask him which speakers he used at home - ATC10s - these are the smallest in the range bookshelf speakers. To drive them properly you need a solid state amp of massive proportions. I tried many that worked but lacked and finally found an American Aragon amp hit the spot.

ATC10s could sound astonishingly good.

I've heard several of the ATC100s- the kind found in many a studio. Immense, powerful, sharp, fast, stunning. Not for me though, Bedford Towers could not accommodate them without howls of protest from the surrounding villages.
