Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers.
Proac3.8 or any other proac before they switched to a 4 ohm load,which they recently did, why I don’t know, but the earlier proactive speakers are madgic with the atma spheres! 
Just ordered a pair of Atma-Sphere MK II.3 monos
They will blow you away! 
Anyone hear of the Krell MD-20 transport?
Thanks Yioyos,I'll check it out. I hate to sound too ignorant, but what is a digital lens? Since I'm mostly into analoge I really am not to up on things digital but want to improve where I can. Thanks, Mike 
Anyone hear of the Krell MD-20 transport?
Thanks YioryosMy main gig is phono, but since buying the Krell combo used a few years ago, I've been very happy. Question, Is it worth updating the 32x to a 64x , or will Krell do such an update to an older unit? Is it possable to get resolution c... 
Krell KAV-400xi or MF Tri-Vista with B&W or ProAC
I just replaced my 3.5,s with 3.8. Huge improvement! My friend replaced his 3.8,s with D-80,s He,s mad because he says my system sounds much better than his! Hes driving his spks with Vac 70-70 , Me with Atma-sphere MA-1,s Is he under powered? 
Anyone hear of the Krell MD-20 transport?
I own an old MD1 transport, with an SBP 32X. Is this transport also doomed? This combo sounds great with my atma-sphere pro-ac gear . Sailormike 
Proac Original Response 2 VS Response 3
RLF;My friend is trading his 3.8,s for D-80,s and i'm trading my 3.5,s for his 3.8's. any thoughts? Just how good are the new D-80,s?Thanks, Mike 
pro-ac,and atma-sphere combo?
ThanksRLF; I also have an oppotunity to trade for a pair of 3.8,s as a friend of mine is going for the D38,s He will trade mine in instead. He drives his with a Vac 70-70. I with atma-sphere OTL,s When the dealer brings them to his house we may be... 
Should I upgrade my SME 3009 III tonearm?
Don't know what thew difference is between a 3009 and an SME 345 but that is what I have with a Benz Micro Ruby Sitting on a Sota Star . It is one piece of equipment I have never felt the need to upgrade! 
Best Pre-Amp with Phono Stage
I own Atmasphere Ma 1s and sonic frontiers SFL1, and want to upgrade to a balanced pre. MP1 or sonic frontiers? any opinion on sticking with fully balanced Pre? 
Atmasphere MA-1: mk1 vs. mk2?
I have owned a pair of MA 1s for 6 years now and still consider them to be my last amps. I do believe they are best mated with 8ohm spks. They are the same circuit as the MK2 and sound the same. I run Proac3.5's and it is a great match.mike 
Will ARC VT-100 Mk. II drive ProAc 3.8's.
I drive my 3.5s with atmasphere MA 1,s They are a very easy load. What really blew me away, when I took my little quad stack, for the fun of it and hooked it to the proacs. the quad, 40 watts played the proacs to levels way beyond what the sonas f... 
proac 2.5 vs 1sc/sub
I have proac3.5s, with atmasphere amps. I recently bought the Rel Strata. I find it to be a very good combo. The new room I built just seemed to suck all the bass out of my system. The Rel sub seems to blend in so well after careful setup, you don... 
Class A amplifier choice, need suggestions
AtmaSphere tube amps, without a doubt work well with my 3.5,s though I'd love to hear from anyone that has compared the proac 3.5,s with the newer 3.8,s Mike
