Compact Home
Theater at its Best
2200 System shown
in gloss black
A state-of-the-art flat-screen picture is only half of the
full home theater experience. Without great sound to go
with that big picture, you aren’t getting the full theater
treatment. Yet even though many people want the benefits
and “wow factor” of home theater sound, they won’t give
up the room for big speakers.
With this dilemma in mind, Atlantic has developed three
new systems that, while relatively compact in size, deliver
the kind of performance that has previously only been
available with larger speakers.
These new loudspeakers are actually a set of “acoustic
building blocks” for assembling a system perfectly suited
to any room and budget, but one that still maintains a
consistent tonal balance. This insures that any mix of
different 920/1200/2200 speakers will always sound
“right.” As sound travels around the room from one
speaker to another, the transition should be seamless in
order to maintain sonic believability.
The key to the extraordinary sound of these new systems
is the advanced design of their drivers. The drivers are the
heart of a speaker, much like the engine is the heart of
an automobile. Instead of inexpensive paper-cone “full-
range” drivers, the System 920, 1200 and 2200 utilize
sophisticated mid-woofers and soft dome tweeters that
produce exciting, articulate, realistic sound, very much in
the tradition of our award-winning $20,000 System 8200.
We consider the Systems 920, 1200, and 2200 to be the
best values in Atlantic Technology’s history

perfect proportion.
Boundary Compensation - Placing a center channel
speaker directly on a large-screen TV or in a bookshelf unit
can cause a buildup of lower midrange energy that makes
voices and instruments sound unnaturally thick and heavy.
To compensate, we’ve developed a boundary circuit that
counteracts this problem. When activated, the boundary
compensation switch will return the lower midrange—
particularly male voices—to its natural, uncolored state.
The 1200 C center channel shares the same design approach
as the 2200 C but its smaller size and lower cost make it
better suited to smaller rooms.

We Finish the “Finish”
The 1200 and 2200 come in two beautiful finishes: gloss
black or satin black. Their integrated side panels offer a
degree of elegance just not found in loudspeakers at these
prices. They also have heavy-duty, curved metal grills that
are far more sophisticated than the flimsy plastic-frame
grilles usually found on inexpensive speakers. One look at
these speakers will reveal the care and detail that went into
their development.
