Pass Labs INT 60 VS. Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP VS. Arcam A49

Tying to decide between the Pass Labs INT 60 integrated amp and the Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP integrated tube amp. I currently have the Arcam A49 which is excellent but looking for something with even more detail. All three have many excellent reviews, looking for input to make a decision. I have Wilson Audio Sasha 1 speakers, an Arcam D33 DAC, Rega Apollo-R CD, Clearaudio Performance DC turntable with a Manley Chinook phono stage.

I concur- gbmcleod

the Sasha and Sophia can handle a tubed power amp like ARC.
The way it was explained to me- if user enjoys electric guitar/electric bass-driven music, then, a robust SS power amp is the order on Wilson speakers.

TY- unsound.
It is hard to believe that Pass Labs cannot build an INT for 2-Ohms stable?

OP-

at this level of performance, you must audition these amps prior to any purchase.  The Pass Labs, PL HP or Accuphase will drive your speakers- well.

I am strongly considering a Pass Labs INT myself.
