Who's Replaced Odyssey amps/ Extreme / Klaus

Curious these amps have been hot for years, very good price, very good customer service, and mostly excellent reviews... Whats going over the Top of the line Extreme's? Just wondering cause I am seeing a lot of movement to the Nuforce 9.02's but have heard nuforce and was not that impressed. I am in balance of the 3000.00 price range Myself for some mono blocks... I realize McCormack's 5000.00 amps could be a small step up but whats the Budget Busters in 2006? Anyones experiance very appreciated, even if you bought a used 10,000 Amp to Dethrone them. Thanks

I don't know about thrones -- or why you would wish to dethrone the Extremes. Do you use these and don't like them anymore, or are you interested in comparisons made & the budget required for "better" performance?

BTW, "better" is often a matter of the speakers being powered, as you doubtless know -- also of the sound that tickles your fancy...

One obvious "better" (in many respects) is the original upon which the Odyssey amps are based (Symphonic Line).

Matrix, I still have the Oddyssey Extreme Stratos,
If you want a good amp better than the Extreme.
Go for the BAT 500 with BAK PAK.I own them both.
