Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing

@pstores

I am staying clear of the insults, anti subjectivism aspects. My only point and interest is the comparison between two quite different approaches to class D design. Ralph’s new amplifiers are receiving much positive comments and I believe deservingly warranted.

His high feedback Op-amps amplifier versus a near polar /opposite approach is something that I find compelling with regard to respective sonic presentation. All that concerns me with audio products is how do they sound? That’s why we buy them.

Pudelpointers are a very old and rare breed. Once people realized I used the dried excrement and Birch Bark with special Teflon twisted pair wire ties that should definitely increase the value and sonic character of the amplifiers. Hopefully we can try it with the Pass XA60.8’s also. Just think of the overall improvement these amplifiers will see. The Dried Dog Excrement should isolate the Power Supply from vibration better then wood by far. And take all Jitter out of the signal path. I may even try to silicone all the boards on top of a few pieces also. Since the amps don’t heat up I don’t believe smell will be an issue. But the XA60.8’s heat up some. Ummm, we will see how it all works out.

Can we please move the measurement vs perception distraction to another thread so we can focus on Atma-Sphere's new amp here.  FYI, I am picking up a demo pair in a couple hours. 

Its tough to debate with the self-righteous for they are sure they are absolutely right…and I am sure there are no absolutes in addition to the FACT that what they believe they are RIGHT about is off topic to the OP’s thread. But maybe it’s wrong of me to point this out when he is so lovingly offering up complimentary salvation?

The problem with those who are certain they know the “secret” to something is the fact that they just can’t stand keeping it to themselves.

  You are going to love them I’ll bet. Guessing since they are a demo pair they have a lot of hours on them. Thats good. I did find mine got slightly better after a few hours of run time. But they were great out of the box. What does your system consistent of? I’ll be looking forward to your comments. I’ll be posting more information also later today after putting them into different systems at an Audio Shop in Minneapolis. And a friends house on my way home.
