Offered is „SCM40“ by ATC as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 1272566155 ends on 17.10.2026 at 11:57 o'clock.
At €4,100, this sits a touch above the €3,797 median and below the €4,191 75th percentile, so it reads as a fair asking price rather than a bargain or an overreach.
That makes sense for a well-regarded floorstander like this: it’s known for serious midrange clarity, controlled bass, and the kind of tonal balance that rewards good amplification and careful placement. If the cabinets are clean and the drivers are original, this is the sort of used buy that can still feel very current. At this price, the main upside is getting a respected, low-drama speaker with strong long-term appeal; just make sure stands, grilles, and driver condition are all accounted for.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
ATC (Acoustic Transducer Company), a British engineering powerhouse, was founded in 1974 by innovative loudspeaker designer Billy Woodman. Initially focused on crafting custom drive units for the professional audio sector, the company quickly gained acclaim with its 12-inch PA75-314 driver, renowned for superior power handling and minimal distortion at high sound pressure levels. In 1976, ATC introduced the groundbreaking SM75-150 soft dome midrange driver, revolutionizing dispersion, bandwidth, and clarity in studio monitors.
The brand specializes in high-precision loudspeakers, designing and manufacturing its own drivers—including tweeters, midrange, and bass units—in-house for both professional and home applications. Its SCM series offers a spectrum from compact models like the SCM7 to larger formats, available in active and passive configurations. ATC also produces standalone electronics, such as preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and integrated amps like the SIA2-150, all built to uncompromising standards of accuracy and reliability.
ATC commands a elite position in the high-end hi-fi market, revered by recording studios worldwide for its transparent, detail-revealing monitors and by discerning audiophiles for domestic speakers that deliver reference-grade performance. A professional ethos, advanced materials, and innovations like the Super Linear Driver—slashing distortion in the vocal range—cement its status as a boutique leader, where precision engineering trumps mass production.
