Aesthetix + AtmaSphere


I went from an all AtmaSphere system to an all Aesthetix system. ( with a Simaudio system as a solid state detour)
I really loved the AtmaSphere rig, but felt my Vandersteen’s might like a little more power. So I changed up, and as always, I’m missing something about The AS.  There is just some of that magic missing.  My question is: has anyone here tried the Aesthetix Calypso with AtmaSphere M60’s?  Or even the more powerful M1’s?   I don’t have a lot to complain about with my Aesthetix Atlas, but man, that OTL magic.....

change the tube
use the Model 7 Vandy filters vs the internal Aesthetix filter
upgrade to the Signature Caps or Eclipse

but yes Raplhs amps are special 2
I’m using the M5 HP filters.  Tried both ways.  I think you’re local, maybe just need to come over for an education;)
@OP, 
I think you should PM John Rutan (audioconnection).
He sells Aesthetix and Vandy and would have the most accurate info.

I have been using Atma MA-1's and an MP-3 with my Treo's for the past year. I just switched over to an Ayre KX-R (non Twenty), and I have to say I am impressed. I then switched out the Atma to the Ayre MX-R (non Twenty also), and think the Atma's might just be a better pairing.
Now, in the interest of fairness, I need to get a MP-1 to see how far this baby can go.😎
