Atma-sphere S-30, any users out there?


I am considering checking this amp out, it seems to be offer a lot for a VERY affordable price. What do people who use it think, and what have you compared it to? I am currently using a much more expensive tube amp, but am facinated by using an OTL. At the other end of the spectrum I was considering the Wavac 805's.

Ahhh, the first watt. Doesn't Nelson Pass insist it is the first watt that matters most? That if the first watt isn't a good one then how can one expect the following watts to be any better?

I like his philosophy. But I also like Atmasphere's philosophy and, although I have not heard Nelson's F1, I have heard the Atmasphere's. They are excellent - just excellent.

But I still want to hear that F1 on a pair of high efficiency speakers. It's bugging me.

By the way, do you have the db99 speakers? Give us a comment or two. I hear tell they are nice.
