Atmasphere preamps


I have read some wonderfull reviews on both the atmasphere preamps I linked to through their website. One reviewer seemed to prefer the AS mp3 to the Cj 17, FS pres del, and the Lamm LL2. I did not find much about their preamps in the audio forums, so I thought I would start a new thread on them. How do any of you with first hand experience feel about these preamps, and what amp do you use with it that works well. My amp is a Vac ( kt-88 based) and speakers are the Vandy 5a.

Fjn04, I think you will find that the Atma-Sphere MP-1 does all that you describe, and with a great neutrality. It will not have that euphonic warmth we sometimes associate with tube electronics, it is quite neutral, but it will have superb rendition of harmonic overtones, timbre and recreation of soundstaging in width, depth and height you value. Then it will deliver transient speed, detail and resolution that will delight you, but without any artificial highlighting or edge.

Best wishes in your search,
