6200e summary pricing ranges from a 5.1 black system w/ 4400eSR's to a 5.1 system with 8200eSR's on pedestals. All items available separately.
6200e LR — Left and Right Front Speakers
The System 6200e is Atlantic Technology's second highest-priced system, but it's a top-of-the-line system by anyone else's standards. It offers an impressive level of refinement and flexibility, able to deliver its superb sound in a wide variety of real-world settings and acoustic environments. The 6200e LR's have an unbeatable combination of smooth, accurate sound, sophisticated style, and unmatched value in a high-end system. You can enhance the speakers' performance in any room with the onboard optimization switches that minimize the detrimental effects of speaker placement and room acoustics. Whether you're listening to Schubert or the Stones, or watching Schwartzenaegger, with the 6200e LR's you'll appreciate the speaker's ability to capture the explosive dynamics of the latest Hollywood blockbuster or the subtle detail in a classic recording.
The 6200e LR features the following rear mounted acoustic optimization controls
- A 3-position High Frequency Energy switch (changes the tilt of the tweeters response, not simply how loudly the tweeter plays). This allows much improved matching of the speaker's response to different room environments. Whether you have an acoustically live (highly reflective) or dead (highly absorptive) room, you can correct for varying acoustics.
- A Location Selector switch shelves up both the upper midrange and the high frequency output to compensate for being located behind a perforated screen or theater curtains, providing unrestricted detail at the listening position.
- A Boundary Compensation control adjusts for placing the speakers in custom cabinets or directly adjacent to a TV, delivering open and natural sound.
These ultra-high performance satellites can be combined with sand-fillable pedestals to create an impressive floor standing speaker. Or, the satellites can be used alone, installed in custom cabinetry behind an acoustically-transparent panel. The 6200e LR's can be used in any multi-channel configuration. For 7.1 systems, we recommend another set of LR's for the back channels with an additional 642e SB subwoofer. For technical highlights, please visit our technical overview of the product.
The cabinet's side panels are finished in a lustrous Satin Black painted finish.
6200e C — Center Channel Speaker
Taking center stage, the 6200e C delivers dialogue, music, and special effects with such accuracy you will hear every nuance no matter what the source. Employing the exact same driver set as the 6200e LR's, sounds move seamlessly across the front channels. Incorporating the trademark Atlantic rotator base combined with compensation controls for any placement and room acoustics, the 6200e C provides the ultimate in flexibility and performance for today's high-end installations.

Like the 6200e LR, the 6200e C's side panels are finished in a beautiful Satin Black paint.
642e SB
The Atlantic Technology 642e SB THX Select powered subwoofer is a significant upgrade from its highly acclaimed predecessor. Compared to the original 642, we have developed a totally new driver with three times the motor size, a stiffer spider, and a heavier cone. It's a real "monster" of a driver. While the driver's free-air resonance remains at 25 Hz, the output of the sub from 35 Hz to 60 Hz-right in the impact range- has been improved by almost 3dB.
We have modified the equalization (because of the new driver's improved low-frequency output, less amp power is needed for EQ, and consequently more power is available for SPL), limiting and soft clipping parameters of the amplifier to optimize its performance. The result of these changes is a perceived 50-watt increase. In other words, the amplifier plays louder than before, with less distortion at its limits. The 642e SB features a sealed enclosure design for low distortion and smoother bass output. Sealed enclosure woofer designs are inherently low in distortion, and deliver deep smooth bass response with a gradual and predictable roll-off below resonance. As with all Atlantic Technology subwoofers, close attention has been paid to providing accurate musical bass reproduction along with terrific special effects. Atlantic's proprietary Clear Filter Technology ensures that the bass is detailed and accurate.
Powered by a high-efficiency 300 watt amplifier, the 642e SB utilizes the latest in amplifier technology, with an output stage capable of extremely high current delivery and maximum efficiency for exceptional driver control and cool thermal operation. As a custom-designed amplifier, it has been precision matched and equalized to the new 12" driver.
With a useful in-room frequency response of 20Hz to 150Hz, the 642e SB subwoofer is designed to deliver its rated performance under actual listening conditions, when properly placed and adjusted. Additionally, an adjustable (40Hz to 140Hz) 18dB per octave Low Pass crossover with steep upper end roll-off allows for much better bass integration with your main speakers.
“The system's exemplary balance and poise under pressure won my heart. Bravo!”
