Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

RE: Which GaN amp did you have ?

At only 7 watts each at idle you can leave the Atma-sphere monos ON 24/7. If you need a way to power them ON/OFF remotely you can use a remote controlled ac outlet. Not an elegant solution but it works. This one has dual outlets and there are several similar devices on Amazon.

I wish more audiophile brands would include 12v triggers as standard on all of their gear. This isn't the 1960's! Some brands actually have the nerve to charge you extra for a fricken 12v trigger. This is my current pet peave. It used to be preamp makers who refused to incorporate remote control. Their cop-out response was a bogus claim that it adversely affects audio quality when in fact they were just too cheap or lazy (probably both). How many preamp makers today do not offer remote control? None?

Oops! I just checked your Profile and it says you're in the UK. I'm sure there are similar devices with UK style AC Plug/Outlets.
