Will upgrading my amp for el34s to kt90s help?
I have heard the Cronus integrated both regular and Magnum,the Magnum upgrade did wonders for the sound in all areas.The Atlas is the power amp section of the Cronus so similar results should be heard.Try to listen to an upgraded Atlas if at all p...

A Pathos pre will probably be a safe bet.
