Dont you find it radiate to much sound presure?
No. I find it is quite flat. But I understand why you might think so - many people do. And if you do then I think ATC is the wrong choice for you.
Basically it is not your more typical "scooped midrange" sound - so relatively speaking flat sounds "forward" compared to the norm these days (which is for an impressive bass with a dip in the midrange).
Speaker manufacturers well know that bass and treble sells (they have had fifty years to discover this)...so a scooped midrange has become the norm in order to meet customer preferences (and win in a shop floor demo). This also just happens to be the way the most common form of speaker on the planet nearly always will sound - I am referring to a two way with a woofer and a small tweeter (pretty common I think you will agree). Anyway, beaming on the large woofer causes an off axis dip in the upper mids. This sound is so prevalent as to have become what many people regard as the norm. It may be part of the reason why some complain that reproduced music never sounds real - I believe that somehow we can tell if the on axis and off axis response reaching our ears is not the same...we sense something not natural about the sound field (even if it is beautiful sounding)...it might be why MBL speakers are so impressive: they generate a fully balanced or convincing sound field.
Anyway - a technical explanation for what people like or don't like will not change the fact that the ATC midrange may well be much too forward relative to your preferences. In which case, a PMC three way might be a better choice for you - another good speaker of very similar design but more bass and a tad less midrange.
