Atma-Sphere Class D getting some love

When will the new amps become available?

Interesting to see how class d amplifier manufacturers are going with GaNFET output devices. Maybe there’s something to that. 

Not all of them are NAD is purfi and Bel Canto is Nucore. I love my Bel Canto gear and was not crazy about the NAD gear I had.

I think a lot of it is what is done up stream from the core?

Ralph would no better but GaNFET seems to be the flavor of the month.

Really enjoyed my time in this room at the Florida Audio Expo.  Not familiar with the Goldnote Speakers presentation but the room was extremely enjoyable with a very balanced sound that I visited multiple times over my days at the show.  Congratulations Ralph!

Ralph, thank you for taking the plunge (several years ago) and putting so much hard work into this new tech. It's fascinating watching the gyrations of consumers and manufacturers trying to make sense of what's happening.

I'm very curious what preamp typology pairs best with your Class-D mono's?

Would a simple passive SS preamp be better than say a tube preamp? Will a tube preamp impart it's color/warmth to the signal (at the cost of ultimate transparency) or are there other factors to consider when adding a preamp?

Thanks. 

Those mbls! Good lord in heaven! The Atmas amps…..having heard them Id say not too shabby either and way more affordable.
