This compact high-performance CD digital audio source has been designed to offer exceptional performance and compatibility with a very wide range of partnering electronics both from ATC and other high-quality manufacturers. Styling compliments ATC’s full range of audio electronics, but its small form factor makes it the perfect partner to the equally compact SIA2-100 integrated amplifier.
Discrete class-A low-noise circuitry evolved from high-end SCA2 preamp.
MC/MM RIAA Phono Stage with adjustable gain/loading.
High-Performance Headphone Amplifier.
5 x stereo RCA/Phono inputs.
IR Remote Control.
Hand built in the UK & covered by a 6–year warranty.
“…if you want to hear the important musical detail presented in a coherent, clear-cut fashion this pairing has remarkably little competition in the two box arena. There are a few integrated amps which give them a run for their money in one respect or another but nothing comes to mind which seems like a better overall package.”
Developed and manufactured in-house by KECES, our toroidal transformer delivers clean and stable power through precision winding and carefully selected materials. It effectively reduces background noise, enhances detail resolution, and lays a solid foundation for superior sonic performance.
ATC is delighted to introduce the EL50 Anniversary to audiophiles and music lovers seeking long-lasting high performance, design and engineering quality. It is the latest evolution of the legendary ATC 50 loudspeaker design, featuring ATCs discrete active tri-amp technology, renowned drive units and a new elliptical curved cabinet for optimal radiation from the mid and high-frequency drive units. Its industrial design draws from the EL150, released in 2006, the first ATC loudspeaker to employ an elliptical enclosure and designed by Billy Woodman. Leather detailing on the front face and beautiful hand-selected veneers further elevate the design.
The SCM20PSL is ATC’s flagship 2-way stand-mount loudspeaker and is the ideal choice in modestly sized rooms, but where performance cannot be compromised.
Its sealed cabinet design ensures excellent timing, useful low frequency output below the cut-off and that the speakers can be placed relatively close to walls without excessive low frequency output or ‘boom’.
The active SCM20ASL features an on-board 250W Amp Pack. Simply pair with a suitable pre-amplifier, DAC/pre or streaming-pre-amp for stunning results.
The active SCM20ASL replaces the passive crossover and the driving amplifier of a 'conventional' system with a precisely matched 'Amp Pack', mounted to the rear of the loudspeaker cabinet. The electronic system consists of a balanced input feeding a 2nd order active electronic crossover which, in turn, feeds a pair of class A/B power amplifiers, carefully tailored to the exact requirements of the mid/bass and high-frequency drive units.
