Would the 300W CJ ART 300 Monoblocks be too much for my Avalon Ascendants?
Two amps that I recently purchased are stellar.  The PSAudio BHK 300 hybrid monoblcks and the Atma-Sphere 100 wpc class d monoblocks.  Just in case u are open to suggestions....  
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@cymivka I debated between Atma- Sphere and AGD monoblocks for my second amp purchase.  Talked to both designers.  I settled on the Atma-Sphere so I have never heard the AGDs.  I do have a LSA Voyager Gan modded amp that sounds really nice.  The A...

@joey54 I know of them but have never heard them.  I am overrun with superb monoblocks right now - PSAudio Signature 300s, Atma-Sphere class ds, and heavily modded Parasound JC1 monoblocks.  I will put them on my seek and listen list for sure.

@tweak1 sorry to hear about your Voyager GAN mishap. These amps show up for a little over a grand on this site. Ric modded mine. It is not the best amp that I have for sure. However, the are really good and, for the money, is a great little amp. ...

Well, the Atma-Sphere 100 wpc class D monoblocks are very fine amplifiers. In listening to them I cannot identify anything in its sonic signature that screams class D. I have been surprised that the class D monoblocks seem to power my Aerial Acous... 
Aragon Amps any good for Planars?
Twenty four year old post actually....  
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@kykat I am using a top end Aric Audio Motherlode preamp and Aerial Acoustic 7T speakers that were essentially gutted and rebuilt  by Doug Jesse at ASi Teknology.  I also use a Space _Tech Super Rectifier via an umbilical cord to my preamp.  
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@pstores i just unboxed and hooked up my Atma-Sphere monoblocks this morning.  Cold and straight out of the box i was very impressed.  They sound very clean, pristine, neutral and very natural sounding.  I am letting the play all day streaming Qob... 
Considering a Backert Rhythm 1.4, talk me out of it
Get an Aric Audio Motherlode XL preamp for half the cost and enjoy a state of the art preamplifier for literally peanuts. That’s sure as hell what I am doing.

My Atma-Sphere 100 wpc class D monoblocks just arrived today. Beginning tomorrow they are going to start getting serious run in my reference system. I got about 5 amps now down by reference system. Oh well, life is short.....

@audition__audio my settling on solid state over tube amps has been to pair high caliber tube preamps - Aric Audio Motherlode - with a clean, powefuul solid state amp with great clarity.

@audition__audio my Aerial Acoustic 7Ts were modded by Doug Jesse of Asi Teknology.  They for sure like like current.  The difference post-modification is the clarity, delicacy and imaging.

@pynkfloydd I have about 70 hours of play time on the BHK 300 monoblocks.  I can easily state that these are the best stock amplifiers I have ever had in any of my systems.  I absolutely love their sound which is clean, clear, slightly forward, tr...

Update on the PSAudio BHK 300 monoblocks - what a difference 13 hours makes.  These amps sound clean, powerful, dynamic with vivid tonal colors.  Really nice clarity and excellent imaging.   These are not TAS approved boat anchors.
