Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing

Today I picked up my Atma-Sphere Class D Amps. These aren’t broken in yet. And they are simply amazing. I’ve listen to a lot of High End Class D. Some that cost many times what Atma-Sphere Class D costs. I wasn’t a fan of any of them. But these amps are amazing. I really expected to hate them. So my expectations were low. The Details are of what I’ve never heard from any other amps. They are extremely neutral. To say the realism is is extremely good is a gross understatement. They are so transparent it’s scary. These amps just grab you and suck you into the music. After I live with them some and get them broken in. And do some comparisons to some other high end Amps Solid State, Tubes and Class D’s, also in other systems I’ll do a more comprehensive review. But for now, these are simply amazing amps.. Congrats to Ralph and his team. You guys nailed on these.

@aw-agd, Likewise I would appreciate it if you didn't try to gaslight me.

Ralph, I apologize; I did not mean to be rude or disrespectful. Sometimes, the Italian2English module installed in my cortex shows evidence of age and the need for an upgrade. Sorry for that, it was made in the last century. I just tried to share that the subject is more complex than it may seem. In any case, I am open to continuing the phone conversation and avoiding the potential misunderstanding of using a post like this. Thank you

Just finished reading through this thread that started in 2022. Glad to see it is still running as I have a pair of A-S Class D Monos arriving tomorrow. Unfortunately, my source is in repair - the balanced outputs were thumping. So full appreciation will wait a little while.

System is: Auralic VEGA G2 with LEO GX clock (VEGA is in the shop and using POLARIS in the interim) => Pioneer M-22 => Omega Super Alnico Monitors - HO with a pair of Rythmic 8" powered woofers and a pair of KEF KC62 subs.

The Pioneer is vintage 1970’s all Class A and is wonderful. Just very hot and 50lbs. Still looking for something lighter that will match its sound. From reading this thread and other opinions, I am very hopeful!

More to come.

Meanwhile....

Here’s a pic of my Pioneer heavyweight.

and the system as a whole
