Earlier today while lisening to my system my ML333 went up in smoke. While it is probably repairable but at what price point. It had just been recapped when I bought it and still in the warentee period but that was several years ago. Needless to say I am now considering replacing it. I had looked at Pass Labs prior but could not come up with a reasonable argument for upgrading then. I am considering Pass X-260.8 pair monoblock at the upper limit of my budget or
X-250.8
I run a ARC LS27, PS DirectStream & PS Memory Player, a Magnum Dynalab
MD 809T Internet Radio Tuner and a CR-7a tapedeck with Shahinian Hawks.
I like the mix from tube feeding ss and I am pretty happy with the remaining components and see little reason to do any additional upgrading. Suggestion, comments welcome, possible other avenues worth considerine....
FWIW, I loved my ML336 and would still have it had the caps not failed on me. I didn't want to deal with that type of maintenance but loved the amplifier.
