ATC’s reputation for the design and manufacture of unique high performance loudspeaker drive units is
legendary with new concepts of design evolving and being perfected continually since its inception in 1974.
The same is true of ATC’s equally innovative and successful high performance audio electronic products.
It all started in1982 with the EC23, a stereo, 3-way electronic crossover incorporating phase correction and
momentary gain reduction – features that are incorporated in all ATC active loudspeaker systems to this day.
The EC23 was the controller for all large ATC active loudspeakers right up to the development in 1996 of the
SPA24-850, a stand-alone stereo Ampack for the control and amplification of SCM200 and SCM300 monitors.
But it was the development of the SCM50A active 3-way monitor in 1985 that changed everything.
An aluminium plate and heatsink that bolted straight into the back of the loudspeaker cabinet onto which three
power amplifiers were mounted: 200W bass, 100W mid-range and 50W high frequency, incorporating phase
correction and momentary gain reduction. This technology is why all ATC active monitors have a flat magnitude
response, an excellent minimum phase response and are factory set to prevent the amplifiers from clipping
when driven hard. There is nothing else that sounds better or offers such great value.
In 1996, ATC designed and developed its first stand-alone hi-fi electronic product through the necessity
of the ongoing quest for the best possible performance money can buy. Few pre-amplifiers available at that
time could drive the long lengths of cable often necessary to link electronics to active loudspeakers.
ATC’s solution was to develop the SCA2 pre-amplifier with its unparalled audio performance, transparency and
current drive ability. Today, ATC has created a wide portfolio of high performance audio electronic products...
from the CA2 pre-amplifier to the exquisite P6 power amplifier.
In December 2011 the Company launched its first CD player, the CDA2, a design that also incorporated a pre-
amplifier and DAC. In response to changing listening trends, in early 2018 the CDA2 was significantly upgraded and
relaunched – the MkII model now boasting the latest high performance CD drive technology and USB interface
allowing playback of extremely high resolution PCM and DSD audio.
Seen as a further evolution of this highly acclaimed digital source is ATC’s new stand-alone CD player, the CD2,
which has been designed in parallel with a matching 100W integrated amplifier, the SIA2-100. Offering a built-in high
resolution asynchronous USB interface the amplifier also incorporates a premium AKM stereo 32-bit DAC.
Whilst designed from the outset to be partnered together, both the CD2 and SIA2-100 may also be purchased
individually to suit customers’ specific system requirements. Either way, these outstanding components offer
music lovers an exceptional combination of performance and functionality.
ATC has grown to become one of the very few manufacturers successful across both domestic and professional
audio. By selecting ATC you join a group of music lovers, professional audio engineers, educators, studios and
musicians across the world that understand the value of the engineering that goes into every ATC product.
