The ATI NCs are incredible amplifiers.  We were blown away by the power of the bass at any listening level.

Designed and built around the musical and highly efficient Hypex N-Core® amplifier technology, the AT52XNC model amplifiers deliver a robust 200 watts of power per channel. Each amplifier channel employs one N-Core® module to drive the loudspeaker and deliver sonic impact to the presentation. Available in 7 models from 2 to 8 channels, the AT52XNC Series offers efficient amplifier performance and value. High current toroidal transformers, a standard for all ATI power amplifiers, provide clean power and stable performance.


The AT500NC Series amplifiers have been designed to be compact and efficient while still providing high power for more demanding multi-channel listening environments. The AT52XNC model amplifiers employ Hypex N-Core® amplifier modules combined with an ATI designed custom gain stage and linear power supply. Each amplifier channel produces 200 watts of output power into 8 ohm loudspeakers and 300 watts into 4 ohm loudspeakers.

Around the back of the amplifier, each channel has an RCA unbalanced input, an XLR Balanced input, input selection switch and a pair of gold-plated, 5-way binding posts for the outputs.

There is also a 1/8” mono mini jack for +12V trigger, a gold-plated chassis ground lug, a fuse holder and an IEC 20 Amp inlet for the provided detachable power cord. The supplied power cord will have either: a NEMA 5-15 plug (Type B) for use in the USA, a BS 1363 (Type G) plug for use in the UK, or a Schuko (Type F) plug for use in the EU and the rest of the world.


Here is an excert from a Sound and Vision review of this line of amplifiers by David Vaughn, “As you can probably tell, I really liked these ATI amps. They offer everything one would want: powerful dynamics and uncolored sound. Given their Class D architecture, they run extremely cool compared with my main reference Class A/B amp—which isn’t such a benefit in the cold of winter but will be a godsend come summer. And now I’m really looking forward to summer because I liked these amps so much, I actually bought them as an upgrade to replace my Parasound A 51, a well-established audiophile/videophile favorite that has been my reference for many years and through many other amplifier reviews. That’s quite an accomplishment for these ATI amps, but I feel confident in saying they deserve to be placed in the same high-end category—and they represent extraordinary value to boot. I can’t recommend them enough.”
