Atlas may sound too bassy on amp9 or amp8. They are more dynamic than amp1 mkII. Also try going down to low gain mode if on medium.Before the first 10 hours with the amp9 burned in I was disappointed with it somewhat and found the stock amp better ( through balanced). Now I figured it was much to do with the ~200 hz range boost making the CA Atlas lose detail and sound muffled.
How does the Amp9 change with burn in ? And does anyone else find they need to re-adjust EQ when going to amp9?

Try some tip rolling. Avoid foams if 200hz is your problem.
Whirlwind tips tame mid/upper bass quite well.
