Nice thread Erik.
I bought the ATI NC528 class D amp to replace an ATI 6012.
Needed more power for the new woofers in my Linkwitz Lab Orion speakers. The Orions need 8 channels of amp. One for each driver. The 528 has linear power supplies.
Someone asked about soundstage depth. My back wall is 20 feet behind the speakers and the soundstage can go well beyond that. The ATI sounds nuanced, has great dynamics and musical ease. Sounds as good as the front end components. Just bought a used phono-preamp. Asked the vendor who is going to sweep that giant soundstage? I used to own a First Watt SIT2. Class A Magic with the right loudspeakers. But the ATI class D with Orions is also magical.
