[QUOTE="croak, post: 67415, member: 361"] A good friend once owned two pairs of 10s, now down to one. I think they are very revealing yet sweet. Not dry like some speakers passed as neutral. Yes, they never sound much bigger then they are and have no extra midbass lump. Stupidly inefficient but must say they did not need playing very loud to be good. We also once compared the aluminium boxed active versions of the 10. Despite ATC insisting that with active xovers there was no way the passive versions irrespective of amp coukd be better, we all preferred the passives driven by electrocompaniet mono blocks. That said the monoblocks cost more then the actives on their own and active was still good. I would rate the active ones as very very good value as the premiun for active is imo less then 40 percent of what it would cost to buy a standalone power amp that gets you remotely in the ball park.
