ATC and Volt drivers are both made in the Uk and those are very popular indeed for high-quality studio monitors. Not cheap though, particularly their respective mid rangers.
Personally I am using Volt woofers and Tannoy DualConcentrics which I am very happy with. |

Volt:Welcome to Volt Loudspeakers
ATC:ATC Loudspeakers. ATC Monitors. ATC SCM. ATC Speakers. Manufacturers of speakers, monitors, drive units and amplifiers. Neither site has prices. Wilmslow Audio (https://www.wilmslowaudio.co.uk/catalog/index.php) sells both but are not the cheapest. Volt Studio are a lot cheaper but only sell Volt. The drivers I use are Volt RV3143 in a transmission line, very much like PMC XB2s. Before you check the prices you might want to sit down and take a deep breath!;-) I can't really say anything about the driver in your link as I am not familiar with it. The Vifa D27 is a really good tweeter btw, madisound sells them for just under $30. ATC use them for some of their own monitors and together with PMC and Quested Audio they are about as good as it gets. The latter two use Volt woofers and mids, I think Quested uses Morel tweets and I have no idea which tweets PMC installs. |

Given a budget and from what appears to be available from Wilmslow I'd go for these:
https://www.wilmslow-audio.co.uk/cat...oducts_id=1006 https://www.wilmslow-audio.co.uk/cat...roducts_id=141 In a 30litre ported (5.2cm dia, 12.5cm length) box it should give a -3dB point of 42Hz. I would run them active as passive crossovers are a pain in the neck! Not very good with all the data (may be some one who knows more than me could chime in here), I just go by gut instinct. Worked well so far for me! |
