First of all, this is my initial post and I may not belong here. I have no professional experience and very little consumer experience either, so take whatever I write with several grains of salt.
I agree that ATC speakers--I have passive SCM40 v2s--are overpriced in the US, and it's easy for me to accept that some other brands are superior at a similar price point. I infer from most of the posts here disparaging ATCs that if the speakers were cheaper, expectations would be lower, peer brands would be different--lower tiered--and judgment might be adjusted upward. I may be summarizing this poorly, but that's my takeaway.
So here's my question: I obtained mine used, with some marred cosmetics, for $3300. At that price, how do y'all think they stack up against the consumer competition?
Obviously, this is a matter of taste, room size and configuration, what power is being used, etc, but insofar as one can generalize...
Thanks.
