PASS LABS ALEPH-3


I want to buy this amp but have a couple of concerns.I currently have a stock Dynaco ST-70 and Paradigm studio80s with 92DB.I get all the volumn I want.Will I get at least as much volumn with the pass?I really would like a bit more actually.Next BIG concern.I get a low level hiss through my preamp phono section at 12 oclock which most likely tube rush.Is this because I have to push my low powered amt too hard?will the Pass eliminate this.Ive heard it plays louder than 30wpc says it should.

the tube rush is usually due to incorrect impedence matching between the cartridge & the phono stage, or, if the impedence matches, the cartridge may need a step up transformer between it & the phono stage. the power amp cannot help with this.
