Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@pstores    Indeed. Its your thread and for someone to question Ralph’s engineering and design chops from left field is questionable. Glad you started it and I’ve never seen anyone question Ralph’s design choices. Atmasphere may or may not be so...

Its tough to debate with the self-righteous for they are sure they are absolutely right…and I am sure there are no absolutes in addition to the FACT that what they believe they are RIGHT about is off topic to the OP’s thread. But maybe it’s wrong ...

@ricevs   What kind of op-amps did Atmasphere specify and in what position? What are your recommendations for upgraded op-amps? in what position and why? What will the positive effect be?   Please, please tell us because Ralph’s livlihood dep...

@tweak1  While I agree with many of your points, consider that ALL aftermarket improvements to engines/suspensions... happened because of DIYers who had the intellect to see the shortcomings in the OEM design and the ability to improve on them, ...

@ricevs   I’m not the one making claims about a product you’ve never seen or heard. I don’t doubt that in your experience with the gear you’ve had at hand that your experience is valid. With that said, I get mild indigestion when some hop on a ...

@ricevs    What little credibility you might have once had is now gone. You have basically just said Ralph doesn't know what he's talking about when it comes to op amps in his own design. You've never heard it and yet you imply that he didn't he...

@ricevs   So what you are saying must be that you have listened to the new Class D amplifiers from Atmasphere, you have tried the modifications you suggested in these amps and you have identified each of your mods as improvements? You state tha...

@atmasphere  A master class above on diplomacy and intelligence.

@ricrevs   I’m certain Ralph just slapped his forehead that his five decade journey in audio design is now complete. Congratulations Ralph!

@viethluu   A subtle nuance to your comment above regarding your Mac preamp. I’ve owned a few Mac preamps through the years. They are feature rich, inoffensive, reliable and trustworthy. They commit no major sins, however, yours interfaced well...

@charles1dad +1   Recently changed from Innuos Zenith Mk3 to the Grimm MU1. Full disclosure, I loved my Innuos and could have lived happily ever after. If that describes you, if you are happy with what you already have then don’t demo a Grimm. I... 
Why not?
1) AQUA includes a decent power cable with Hubbell style terminations. 2) The dealer channel would prefer manufacturers not include upmarket power cords as that is a significant profit center for the dealer.

@mbmi I have not heard the new Class D offering…but I do believe Ralph has earned the respect of most of the rational audiophile community whether they purchase Atmasphere or not. I’ll call you on your claim that you heard the Atmaspere class d am...
