No, active ATC monitors do the job very thoroughly indeed.

Chris I have a few Celestion AD 12 Subs kicking about, these are the drivers from the marshall 4 * 4 Cabs, they made great subs in their day, had a pair in a ported (twin 3 inch dia, 8 ich long flared pipes) .7m cubic box, They rocked rather well, with 1Kw of Genesis amplification on them.
Oh, This morning I went to Andy's for Timps 'x' over back, and listened to a class 'd' valve amp, now that wasn't very intresting, next time you over Chris, we'll go and see him, he just done a 'pre verison' too' Tone
The electrostatics that I've heard do a very fine job of sounding like a Marshall stack fed by a Stratocaster played by a genius, when appropriate. They also do a fine job of drums, bass and vocals. In the context of a normal living room rather than a studio or stage.I'd argue that electrostatics that I have heard do not possess the ability to 'move air' that a cone has - and cannot therefore recreate the energy of the original amplification.

FWIW the best recording of the Stratocaster genius is only available on long deleted corporate copyright infringing vinyl, the CD reissues seem to be completely screwed. Sorry.

That's the kind of synergy I can relate to.And I have also found that Kef speakers and skips have a certain synergy.
I'd definitely second that, it's not the stereotype you might think it is if you haven't actually heard it with your own ears. :MILD:Originally posted by bottleneck
You should hear Julians system Reg.
Not hard or harsh at all. The B&Ws have really tamed the sound in a very nice way.
One of those synergy things?
