Are Pass Labs amps probably the best ever you can buy ?

Pass are superb, there is better.
for less, shop around, listen and learn. 
I went with McCormack. —-and no turning back now. 
Im hooked on Steve’s house sound. 
 Passed up a Pass mono pair for the McCormack monos’, could not be happier, your ears will tell you what you like, when the goosebumps hit......you will know. 
Enjoy the hunt. 

Steve McCormack’s new amps and preamp in my opinion are better.

Sanders sound Magtech.

LUXMAN IS ALSO GREAT

there are a lot of great amps.

like ice cream, too many flavors!
