Thanks to everyone who posted! Pass Labs seems to have quite a reputation. As always, listening will make the decision easier. I also decided to listen to some new speakers recently with comparable equipment...JM Labs Electra 926's...I'm thinking maybe speakers are what I really need first.
Pre/power Amp Advice
I'm currently running Arcam FMJ A22/P25 bi-amped into Paradigm speakers. I'd like to upgrade to a separate preamp and am considering the following preamp/amp brand pairs:
Musical Fidelity A308 / A308CR
Bryston BP25 / 3BSST or 4BSST
Pass Labs X2.5 / X150 or X250
Innersound iPre / ESL300
Arcam FMJ C30 / FMJ P35 (not sure if the C30 is available yet, and I could always keep the P25)
Does anyone have any recommendations of what to do? I understand that some of the price points are incompatible, in which case I would probably investigate used, instead of new.
I really appreciate any input.
