Coupled with a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter, the speakers excel in reproducing high frequencies with clarity, ensuring that vocals and instruments are rendered with precision.

The AT-2 incorporates Atlantic Technology's proprietary Bass Management System. This technology intelligently manages low-frequency output, making it possible for the speakers to deliver a full-bodied sound without distortion, even at higher volumes. This feature is particularly appealing for home theater enthusiasts, as it enhances the effectiveness of soundtracks and dialogue.
