Even if you run actives there is strong possibility the speakers reft to right channels will not measure the same in the listening position. My interest is about the inherent noise of these devices mostly

Have you tried any of the cheap ones?

Anyone here has experience with the much cheaper 231s regarding noise clipping etc

You know most of the reviews back in the day use to quote that ATC are too revealing because of the studio character therefore not ideal for home use...

Can you try eq any headphones and compare digital to analog eq

Can you help with translation

This is a good example of how easy it is to have good sound with the passives

Did you get to hear them after all your posts?

Is that a perfect flat response?

Yes

How do you find the tweeter presence on the V1?

A bit better maybe but not miles better as you guys say. Actives' amps are usually higher noise designs compared to the best amplification these days although ATC amps are among the best from what i gather.

That is an easy fix IF the actual response has an audible dip in that region or else there is nothing wrong there. The main problem as you see is the tweeter level which is audible.

All they passive 40s (V1) need is to bring the tweeter level a bit down.Have you compared actives to passives side by side?

Source direct applies to all of your inputs and shortens the path for a cleaner signal. It is supposed to have better than 110 db A weighted S/N if the parts are still up to spec.
