Atmasphere mp1 mk3.3 with phono

Looking for feedback on any members who did do the upgrades on this preamp.  Looking to improve the Phono stage and linestage, whether an upgrade on resistors would be the best for this preamp.

I think you should PM Audiogon member Pstores. He has a lot of firsthand info on Atma's.
Of course, calling Ralph(-Atmasphere) directly would provide the most accurate info.

When I had Ralph build my MP-1, I had them install V Caps (as per Pstores advice).

Bob... thanks for the heads up.  Did you get the resistors upgrades?  I have the v-caps on my preamp, it’s very nice.

I have Both Pre-amps, Plus the UV1. I have owned a number of many other Pre-amps. VAC, VTL, Accuphase, Audio Research, MC, Jardis,Etc etc.

The MP-1 by far is the best I have had, mine is fully optioned with all possibly upgrade. Once you have dialled the pre-amp in with the quiet Tubes (Stay away from NOS) you will never bother looking at another pre-amp regardless of cost or technology used.

The MP-3 Fully optioned is not far behind but obviously no match either.
