I've been using an ATI amp for 11yrs. Its the 1807. It was in my HT for a while, but has since moved to my music system. I put a receiver in the HT.
I have never had problem with the amp and I use it a lot. All that power makes listening at low levels very enjoyable.

My ATI is a 1502 model and I forget the adcom preamp not sure but I have access to other preamps if need be.

Yes my wife really loves it I got a adcom preamp to go with it when I bought it now I bought a phono pre amp to go with it for her a Yaquin 23 B if anyone if familar with that phono pre let me know what you think. Now speakers that she will like I have plenty but she wants a certain sound and look but for her the world that is how I go.
Thanks people much appreciated,

ATI is not necessarily just HT, they are only one chassis and in that chassis you can order a 2 channel up to 7, or begin with 2 channel and expand if ever needed. As example in the 3k series the 3002 is the 2-channel version while 3007 is a 7 channel version but they will visually look the same, plus the 3002 can have amp modules added to be 3 to 7 channels.
I haven't heard one 20 years old but I have heard a 3k version, it was one of the most powerful amps I've heard even at lower volume, it just has a lot of what I'd call thrust. I believe the 2k version and up has a 20 amp power cord.
Morris Kessler is the ATI designer, the line now has a 6k signature version.
In my opinion the weak link would be the Adcom preamp unless you have a gfp750. Then again if your ATI is one of the more entry level the Adcom could be a good match. Not that Adcom is bad, it's good for the money and great for what they go used, it's just the 2k and up ATI are really good and can benefit from a more capable preamp.
