NEAT MINISTRA
€2,130.00
The Ministra is a boundary design, intended for discreet close-to-wall placement. The presentation is typically Neat; musically engaging, with a generous soundstage and tremendous agility. Bass is surprisingly well extended, displaying the same levels of control shown with other Neat iso-baric designs.

ATC SCM-20PSL
SCM20 – Can be active or passive
Overview
The hybrid design incorporates a 150mm bass cone on to which is grafted a 75mm soft dome.
The magnet assembly utilises ATC’s unique “SL” technology which greatly reduces distortion in moving coil drive units by a very significant 12-15dB (3rd harmonic). To minimise Time Domain Distortion both dome and cone are made from acoustically “dead” polyester wave material doped with ATC’s own formulation.
Not only does the SCM20SL reproduce bass with remarkable articulation and authority, it also has outstanding mid-band clarity, incredible dynamic range, and awesome power handling.
The active tower version (SCM20ATSL) is powered by the ATC “Grounded Source” Bi-amplifier. The bass/mid is driven with 200 watts, while the tweeter has 50 watts of class “AB” power.
Both amplifiers feature momentary gain reduction circuitry which both protects drive units and prevents unpleasant sounds from overdrive.
Accompanied by either ATC SCA2 or CA2 preamp the SCM20AT will outperform any other combination in its price range and many costing far more.
An all-time classic still available and in any veneer to special order.
LINE MAGNETIC LM-3
Speakers (Pair) – 18inch woofer & 22A – LM555W – 2x40W – 8Ω 105dB/W/1m – 23Hz-20kHz
The LM-3 are exceptional speakers. The pavilion and its medium driver are replicas of the famous Western Electric 22A and the Western Electric 555W. A reproduction at the antipodes of the « hi-fi » with an extremely natural sound of great magnitude. The bandwidth extends from 150 à 13kHz. In the bass, an 18-inch speaker, the TA-7376 founded in a low-reflex load. Finally, the treble is entrusted to the LM-302, replica of inspiration Jensen.
The result is amazing : An input sensitivity of 105 dB for an impedance of 8 Ohms. L’écoute est tout simplement d’un naturel exceptionnel, l’émotion envahit l’auditeur devant tant de réalisme
