Stereophile, Pass Integrated and personal taste


Stereophile has reviewed another Pass product, the Int-25, and again I found the distortion signatures super interesting:

I wonder if it is possible that such a signature could be something some fall in love with and some are pushed away from?

What part of the distortion signatures concern you?    From what I see you might hear a slight 60 cycle hum at -76 dB's but everything else is under 90dBs.   And there is some kind of harmonics in the noise signature (it is not random) so my guess it is intentional. 

The 50 Hz chart looks OK too.  There is a first order harmonic of -85 dBs at 100 Hz but everything else is under -100 dBs.    You think you can hear that?
