ATC (Acoustic Transducer Company) is now shipping its first compact, active three-way studio control monitor – the SCM25A Pro.
Designed for positioning on a meter bridge, or rack-mountable for broadcast applications, the ATC SCM25A Pro offers very high-performance in a compact form factor. The drive units all use large-diameter, under-hung voice coils, with the mid-range coming from ATCs soft dome unit and bass from a hand-built unit using a carbon-paper cone with high excursion capability. Onboard amplification is the company’s class-A/B Mosfet output stage delivering 150W to the bass driver, 60W to the mid and 25W to the high-frequency driver.
All three stages are fed by fourth-order critically damped crossover filters with phase compensation. The unit’s ported enclosure measures 10.4 inches (264mm) (H) x 16.9 inches (430mm) (W) x 16 inches (408mm) (D). The SCM25A Pro offers low-frequency extension to 42Hz (-6dB).
