Thanks for your comment. Just to clarify, do you mean that the DNA 500 is bested by the old Pass X series or by the new Pass X.5 series (or by both)?
McCormack DNA 500 versus the best Pass Labs amp
Sometime ago one independent (=credible) audio journal (IAR) called the DNA 500 the best solid state amp they've ever heard. Another independent audio journal called the Pass Labs X350.5 the best solid state amp they've heard. So it just seems natural to compare the DNA 500 with the best amps from Pass Labs.
Did anybody had a chance to listen to both the DNA 500 and the X350.5/X250.5/XA30?
