Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing


Today I picked up my Atma-Sphere Class D Amps. These aren’t broken in yet. And they are simply amazing. I’ve listen to a lot of High End Class D. Some that cost many times what Atma-Sphere Class D costs. I wasn’t a fan of any of them. But these amps are amazing. I really expected to hate them. So my expectations were low. The Details are of what I’ve never heard from any other amps. They are extremely neutral. To say the realism is is extremely good is a gross understatement. They are so transparent it’s scary. These amps just grab you and suck you into the music. After I live with them some and get them broken in. And do some comparisons to some other high end Amps Solid State, Tubes and Class D’s, also in other systems I’ll do a more comprehensive review. But for now, these are simply amazing amps.. Congrats to Ralph and his team. You guys nailed on these.

follow up question regarding a higher powered class d amp...would this be of much benefit to people running speakers with 90db+ sensitivity and listening below 85db?

Unless the room is enormous, probably not. In the average room that would work quite well. In most rooms at 85dB and speakers like that the amp would be loafing.

It would be nice to be able to see photos of the interior of the monoblocks, as @ricevs has requested.

If only to make sure there is not a Purifi module in there. :)

There is a video on youtube. Search on my name and it comes up easily. Its questions and answers from an audiophile society in the Bay area of California. I had one of the amps open in my system and showed the interior. There's no Purifi module :)

 

Ralph,

Excellent, just what I was looking for to see inside the monoblock (I'll watch the entire video when I have time). 

Milpai,

Thanks for posting the link and zeroing in on the pertinent part of the video.
