I just want to add another positive vibe post to Ralph and his crew. I have had a bunch of their gear, and dealt with them on upgrades of a few pieces. They have always been awesome to deal with, and the performance of their products is breathtaking (I have a loaded MP-1 MK3.3 and MA-2 MK3.3). Its awesome that Ralph always works with older customers on upgrading old gear to new specs, and providing honest feedback on what those upgrades might do for you. It is a tough position being a manufacturer and participating in forums. I am so glad that Ralph does!
Atma-sphere Updates
As some of you know I have had a few pieces of equipment updated by the Atma-Sphere Crew. I picked them up on the used market. Otherwise, I’d never be able to afford such quality gear. First would like to say I have never seen a company in which it’s employees take so much pride in their work. Hats off to Ralph and everyone at Atma-Sphere. Best CS I’ve ever had with any company. And I do mean ever...
Secondly I have had a pair of M60’s 3.0, and a pair of MA-1’s 3.1 updated to 3.3 versions. Also had Adam Hot Rod my UV-1 to the Hottest UV-1 ever built. A couple friends had MP-3’s updated to 3.3 status also. In each case of the Amps and MP-3’s they came back like a completely different piece of gear. The updates are such a difference it’s hard to believe it’s the same piece I dropped off. The UV-1 was a big difference but not as dramatic. But it is a very simple bare bones circuit. I would strongly suggest if anyone hasn’t updated to the current model 3.3 you really should. You will not be disappointed in anyway. Especially on the Amps, incredible. Also Ralph gives you a brand new 3 year warranty when you update. Pretty hard to beat that. It’s like having a new system.
Simply put the 3.3 update is incredible. Everything sonically is improved. Which makes for a dramatic presentation upgrade. Ralph took great pieces of gear and made them incredibly better. His 3.3 update was the biggest advancement I think he’s had in my opinion. My MA-1’s will be my forever amps. Now I dream of owning an MP-3.
