Atma-Sphere support is nothing short of excellant. They are readily available by e-mail or phone and help with troubleshooting, upgrade suggestions, and whatever your questions might be. They give practical advise that I find has been downright superb. The sound is accurate, detailed, and with excellant bass extension, definition, and control not often found in tubed gear. BIG sound stage, too. Highly recommended.
Zero Feedback: Atmasphere vs. BAT
Do Atmasphere and BAT have similar sound because they both use low or zero feedback tube designs?
I am considering these amps for my 8 ohm 89db Spendor S8e's.
I am looking for smoothness, Transparency and sound on the warm side. I am leaning toward a BAT VK75, it can be upgraded and it runs AB instead of the hot class A. You can also upgrade to VK 150. From what I can gather the 140 watt MA1 is superior in the area of dynamics, that would be the main reason to go Atmasphere to the best of my knowledge as OTL is super fast and more of a rock out style.
I am looking for used gear that can be supported over the long term by a good company.
