ATC – P2 – 300W X 2ch Dual-Mono Power Amplifier

ATC – P2 – 300W x 2ch Dual-Mono Power Amplifier

Upgrading from the P1 power amp, the P2 adds a much larger power supply and additional output MOSFETs to double power to 300W per channel.  It is the ideal solution to drive speakers in larger rooms and/or when a loudspeaker presents a difficult load and will provide an effortless, musical presentation under these demanding conditions.  Like the smaller P1, the combination of exceptional resolution and neutral fidelity allows the quality of the original recording to shine through whilst also offering outstanding compatibility with a wide range of partnering equipment.

ATC’s reputation for the design and manufacture of unique high performance speaker drive units is legendary with new concepts of design evolving and being perfected continually since its inception in 1974.

The same is true of ATC’s equally innovative and successful high performance audio electronic products. It all started in 1982 with the EC23, a stereo, 3-way electronic crossover incorporating phase correction and momentary gain reduction – features that are incorporated in all ATC active loudspeaker systems to this day.

The EC23 was the controller for all large ATC active loudspeakers right up to the development in 1996 of the SPA24-850, a stand-alone stereo Ampack for the control and amplification of SCM200 and SCM300 monitors. But it was the development of the SCM50A active 3-way monitor in 1985 that changed everything.

An aluminium plate and heatsink that bolted straight into the back of the loudspeaker cabinet onto which three power amplifiers were mounted: 200W bass, 100W mid-range and 50W high frequency, incorporating phase correction and momentary gain reduction. This technology is why all ATC active monitors have a flat magnitude response, an excellent minimum phase response and are factory set to prevent the amplifiers from clipping when driven hard. There is nothing else that sounds better or offers such great value.

ATC designed and developed its first stand-alone hi-fi electronic product through the necessity of the ongoing quest for the best possible performance money can buy. Few pre-amplifiers available could drive the long lengths of cable necessary from the listening position to the active loudspeakers at the end of the room and hence the SCA2 pre-amplifier was developed in 1996 with its exceptional audio performance, transparency and current drive ability.

The SCA2 was followed by its partner power amplifier the SPA2-150 a year later. ATC today has a broad pallet of high performance audio electronic products from the CA2 preamplifier, also capable of driving long cable runs, to the exquisite P6 stereo Ampack and the unbeatable P1 and P2 stereo power amplifiers.
