Re: Atma MA2 upgrade report

Me too: I've been VERY pleased with the upgrade of my MA-2s to Mk.II.3 (or Mk.III). Since my amps were very early production Mk.II amps, Ralph also replaced the big output section filter capacitors with the larger caps designed for the MA-2/MA-3 (which more than doubled the capacity of the original power supply) and updated the regulator circuit. For me, the overall sonic improvements have been close to stunning, with much more extended base response (thanks to the big filter caps), improved soundstaging, and very noticeable improvement in "smoothness" (don't know a better way to describe this), while retaining all the fantastic virtues of these amps.
