ATC SCM 40 mk2 vs Salk Song3 Encore

Having heard the Encores, I'd say the above is a very accurate characterization of them.  On the relentless--forgiving spectrum, they fall pretty much middle of the pack.  The only speaker that tames the beryllium better is Fritz (Carrera B), but there you'd probably want to augment with a sub, even though they go down further than one would expect.

Thanks, everyone.
I found an amazing deal for the ATCs and pulled the trigger. If I hadn't, it was going to be a Salk. Clearly, I wouldn't go wrong with either.

Congratulations!  You sir just got yourself a world class speaker.  Did you go with the 40’s?

Atc’s are unlike any other speaker I have heard.  You’re in for a treat!

Yes, the 40's mk2.
I lucked out.
I'm excited.
I just hope my wife can hear the difference.
