So the Bryston 4B3 was leaner than the Pass X250.8?
Is the bass more controlled in the 4B3 or is the X250.8
just fuller? I’m looking for an amp for my Magnepans
which needs an amp with meat on the bones.
Pass or Bryston?…….
Integrated Amplifiers - Luxman vs Pass Labs
Hello All,
This is my first post here at Audiogon.
My current amplifier is the Luxman L-550axii and my speakers are the Marten Django L and Coherent Audio 15 (coaxial speakers with 15" woofer and high efficiency of approximately 98db).
I'm contemplating making a move with my integrated. I'm considering the Luxman 590axii or one of the current Pass Labs Integrated's. I haven't had a chance to listen to the 590 and I've never listened to a Pass product before and the opportunity just doesn't present itself to be able to demo any at a dealer's or in-home.
I'm hoping those that have heard both the Luxman and any current Pass Integrated could chime in with their thoughts about them and the direction you would go given my speakers.
In the future, I may look at replacing the Coherent speakers with Audio Note AN-J or AN-E. Any experience out there with Luxman or Pass Labs and Audio Note speakers??
Thank you to all who chime in with your experience and thoughts!
