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


I have about 15k to spend on an amp/preamp/integrated amp.

I mostly listen to smooth jazz like Dave Koz, Rippingtons, Brian Culbertson etc.... and loud.

I have yet to hear any amp that comes close to Pass Labs.

Your experiences pls ?

I’m a big Pass fan...  but to simply say they sound the best period, is just silly..  Paired with what ?  Since I haven’t heard every amp out there, I can’t say what’s best..
but I’m sure there are other amps out there worthy or equal to pass..
Currently I’m using Pass gear and loving it..  but to say it’s the best out there wouldn’t be fair..  but I have to say.. Pass gear is engineered and built very well ! good value for the money and great sounding in my system !!
I find the Pass house sound to be a bit warm of neutral, which works well for me..  but others may find it to sound “colored”.
So it all depends on your system and tastes..
Glad we have so many choices !!
