Nightfall
This is my first Pass amp so I can't compare the .5 vs the .8 series. Mark at Reno HiFi is a good source to consult with. I find nothing lacking in my .8 amp. Better bass than the A21 or Bel Canto REF 1000M monos. SET like mids, huge soundstage, delicate and extended highs. I'm investing in additional power supplies for my pre amps at this time. I think my amp cravings have been satisfied with the Pass X150.8.
