Well with all the great reviews the Atma-Sphere Class D has received. And the great reviews the Aqua LaScala Op Mk2 has received as well as the Innous Phoenix USB, and Wireworld Platinum Starlight 8, not to forget the Atma-Sphere MP-3 I guess my opinions aren’t just mine. So let’s get back to why this thread was started. And to talk about our opinion on these products. I personally like to hear what others have to say. Thanks.
This is purely subjective opinion. Aqua LaScala/ Atma-Sphere Class D
The last couple weeks I’ve been listening to my Atma-Sphere Class D amps. I added the Aqua LaScala and set of ECC801S Tele’s. And I can say this is a magical combination. The Atma-Sphere are simply amazing. Probably the best Class D on the market. But when fed by the LaScala DAC and the Tele’s it was like wow. Bringing the system to an entirely new level. I can not believe how transparent this system is. And how real Sax, Piano and female vocals sound. Had a Music Teacher over tonight. She teaches Piano on the side. She couldn’t believe how George Winston’s Steinway sounded. She said she’s never heard a Steinway reproduced that close before. BTW she has a Steinway Grand in her home. Tomorrow I’ll be adding a Innous PheonixUSB too the mix. The Atma-Sphere Class D is the best Class D I’ve ever heard in my system. And as close to OTL as you’ll ever get without going OTL. And I’ve had plenty of Class D amps in the system. The Aqua LaScala is an excellent DAC. Great addition to the system. I’d strongly suggest if your looking for a really nice DAC…. This should be on the short list. And it really shines with the Telefunken ECC801s tubes. Anyone else out there have opinions on the Aqua LaScala?

But one does not need to paint flames onto the Pinto. |
@holmz thanks it’s taken my years to slowly acquire a nice system like I have. Need to sell a few more pieces of gear and maybe get a Linq to go with the system. |
