I wanted a phono preamp with balanced out to ideally mate with my pass xp-22 linestage and was surprised many of the heavy hitters only offer RCA out.....
I am satisfied with the XP-17 pass phono preamp but am going to audition the XP-27 pass phono preamp to see if the separate beefier power supply is worth the extra $$$.....I have seen very little chatter about it even though its been out now for over 6 months....perhaps not pricey enough for some of the big spenders here and perhaps two pricey for most people...........I gotta say its gonna have to knock my socks out to justify additional expense.....the xp-17 is very good but felt that if I already have the two box line stage should at least try out the two box phono from Pass.....
