ATC SCA 2
For those whose enjoyment of recorded music is paramount, auditioning the SCA 2 will prove both a revelation and a source of enjoyment for years to come. For those who appreciate not only fine audio performance, but also innovative design and outstanding build quality, the SCA 2 will continue to impress long after the novelty of lesser products has waned.
The SCA 2 preamplifier was initially conceived to fulfil a specific need - to create a no-compromise amplifier to partner the range of ATC active loudspeaker systems. However, as development progressed it became abundantly clear that the SCA 2 preamplifier was capable of enhancing the performance of any audiophile separates, system. In fact, the outstanding ability of the SCA 2 left many who auditioned it in no doubt that they were listening to possibly the finest example of preamplifier design - ever.
Reviews
"The SCA-2 has the sound you'd expect from being right in front of a mixing console while creating a music recording. The SCA-2 discloses its studio origins." - Positive Feedback Review Extract
Positive Feedback review Extract:
"The solid state SCA-2 preamp has a slew of inputs, one balanced input and one balanced output. It is easy to use, with a separate source selector for play and record. It is elegantly designed and nice to look at. I've favored tube preamps for a long time, so I was expecting to hear a sound akin to finger nails on a chalkboard, and was surprised to enjoy the SCA-2

Mark Levinson 326S Baby version of the Ref 32 Pre-amp at a reasonable cost of £6,995. Like most technologies the benefits of the research for the reference products trickle down into more affordable products like the 326s Pre-amp. You get alot of the quality of its bigger brother, providing a jump in the quality available at this price. |
Ayre Acoustics C-5xe Universal Disk Player Stereophile Extract: "It ought to be fairly obvious that I found the Ayre C-5xe more than satisfactory. I didn't expect it to disappoint, but I was unprepared for just how much it delighted me. I've heard a lot of impressive audio components over the years, but I've heard very few that afforded me greater musical pleasure or sent me on as many voyages of musical discovery through discs I thought I knew well." - Wes Phillips, July, 2005 |
Gryphon Diablo The ultimate reference integrated amplifier at £6100. The Gryphon sonic magic in a reasonable sized and georgeous case, you must hear this as it puts most pre power combo's to shame, pure music at its best. |
Brinkmann LaGrange turntableThe Brinkmann LaGrange turntable is without a doubt the best source component I have ever had the chance to enjoy over an extended period of time. It represents a level of perfection and emotional connection to music that I have never heard before. - Danny Kaey extract from Positive Feedback |
Teac Esoteric DV-50SThe Esoteric DV-50 is the most fun you can have with digital music playback short of the dCS trio reviewed by Michael Fremer in April 2003 (Vol.26 No.4). Given that the dCS gear costs about six times as much as the DV-50, the Esoteric is a screaming bargain, especially considering its hyper-advanced technology, bulletproof build, and exceptional sound. You can even play movies on it. - Stereophile Extract |
