Short List of Amps I prefer over the Pass Labs XA25 or INT 25

Pulled the trigger on an XA25 today. 12 months old, $3k.

I purchased and am waiting for a CODA Contimuum #8 amp to arrive. I’m betting the other guys from the old Threshold crew can build a good amp.

Hi @Chorus, still happy with your pass labs XA 25? i own the Sugden Ia 4, that you already demoed, and im thinking about trade it for a Xa 25, do you recomend it? i own Proac tab 10 and Heresy IV

cheers!

I know this is a little off topic, but is there supposed to be a difference in sound between the XA25 and INT25?  I was reading some reviews and they are talking about JFET, Vertical FET, BoboFET, but they don't really explain what it does, or why it's better.

For those of you that are quoting text, are you just clicking the " button then copying and pasting the text from their post?  Sorry, I'm new and have been reading more than posting.

jw,

Sometimes I think the XA25 sounded better than the INT. I never had the
two at the same time. The INT is still a very good product and I am happy with it. AVA has a new Mono Block amp that a buddy of mine
loves better than Pass with his ML CLXs.
