cat jl3 signatures vs. atmashere ma2III's


Has anyone had the cahnce to hear these amps side by side? I was wondering what the sonic differences would be between them. I have heard the cat jL2 signature but have not heard the monoblocks. Do you think the atmasphere would give me the bass slam of the cats. I know both have great midrange and I know that the cat will be a little more "maintenance" but which one do you folks prefer and why? Any input would be much appreciated.

@ Jtimothya : no concern, i was about to purchase an atma-sphere MA2 or a CAT jl2 Mk2, so i was trying to see the limit of each products.

The review of the CAT seemed to be to good to be true.
After some research it seems to be a great product, so i 've decided to purchase one.

My previous post seemed to *bash* CAT, in fact i was very intrested by it, but i put me on mode/state "scpetical"

I will listen to it in few days so I will keep you in touch whith the CAT
Yes follow up is appreciated - I'd very much like to learn your impressions of the CAT amp.
Samuel33, there is no question the CAT is one of the great amps, which does not mean you will love it more than any other, personal taste does come into this -- but it stands on its own as one of the great designs IMHO.
I think you're in for a real treat. I think Ken thinks very highly of both those brands - I know he owns (owned) Wilson.
