Does anyone have experience with the ATMA-SPHERE S30 MKII?
What preamp,speakers,cables do you use?
Thanks,johnny7

What is the proper method for removing output tubes to lower the power? Any downside to doing this? Rising output impedance?
in the S-30 you can just pull power tubes. My speakers work fine with 3 per channel, but they are about 97 db 1 watt/1 meter. The output impedance does get raised so with certain speakers you might introduce a coloration.
Thanks Ralph. I think I'm going to use the M60s as is and just enjoy the music. To my ears your amps and Merlin VSMs are about as good as it gets. Looking forward to the 3.1 upgrade.
Selling an older model s30 was one of my biggest mistakes in 35 years in high end hobby, and I've swapped out a lot. Great amp, if you have enough ventilation in your room.
