One of the reasons I have bought Atmasphere's products is that Ralph can clearly and simply describe why his equipment works as good as it does.- As well as how we perceive sound.

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.
I agree, it is nice that he takes the time to discuss his products. It would be even nicer if he addressed how his product differed from competing class d amps in performance and what a consumer gets with his product that justifies the price of 3-4 times that of competing products. |
@gdnrbob maybe ask @atmasphere what power cord to run on them? |
Because it costs money to build a better mousetrap. If people like their off the shelf Hypex or Purifi based class d amps then they need not look for a superior sounding amplifier. They found their version of great. There's also a four plus decade track record of excellence which also means service after the sale, a good living for those who work there, etc. |
