Don’t know if it is a mistake but on Flux website, Atlas is selling at 990$ !!!

Yeah but isnt their Atlas being their flagship that cost at $3999 ? What logic is that ?

 

[dolordonpanda]

i think they are building a new flagship its called volot only thing it can find about it is pitcure

Volot is just an Amp, Atlas is a DAC/Amp
Also, try to order, it's out of stock, that's probably the reason why it's $990 and not more
But I've reported the problem.

What problem is that ? Also, I doubt its $990 !

For time being, these colors are for Flux FA-12S. They confirmed on Facebook. Also at the point these photos are demonstration of opportunities and if one is so inclined then he can approach them asking for specific color and they would see if they can accommodate the request depending upon the availability.

It would be nice if they could expand that option across different models.

You sound like you are associating with them personally along side with Sandu.

Lol, It is just that they are pretty good with communication and answer the questions.

I think they will, depending upon the demand.

Interesting that the single ended FA-10s has balanced in and an XLR out? How do you think that works?

 

[NickT23]

Yes it is class A so it has that hint of warm sound. The treble is not aggressive but rather calm. It is not too sharp or too bright or harsh compared to a drier sounding amplifier. I can not listen to the aggressive music comfortably on my THX 887 whereas treble intensive music is much easier on my ears on FA-10. Although the treble is not as textured or defined as THX amps but it has good balance of sharpness and detail. It is different from THX so they compliment each other in that department which is another plus for me since I have both so I can use any of the two depending upon the tracks. It is not more of the same.

Yes it is meatier sounding amp in the mid range and bass so does not sound thin.

Let see how the Topping A90 is in comparison to THX and FA-10. I am hoping that Topping A90 would take place of my THX 887 amp and THX 887 I would use in a different setup in the living room.

If possible can you try IEM at your disposable as well as hard and easy to drive cheap dynamics ?

Very interesting though, we would like to see the Volvot compare to the FA-10 in terms of sound and performance, no BS just direct facts and how much better in quantifiable terms as much as possible.

They are there just for the sake of convenience otherwise the amp is single ended.

Curious if there are sonic differences using the different inputs and/or outputs. Have you tried different ones?

Edit: There is no sonic difference. There is no difference in terms of power and volume as well.

@saadi703 , when you get a chance please let us know the Topping A90 & Flux comparison. We are all ears

Ok Atlas at 990$ is a database issue, confirmed by Flux, too bad
My FA-10 is shipped today, my HE6-se is tired to wait...
