No sense in arguing, Pass Labs has set a benchmark on build quality and sound quality for solid state amps. Short signal path, high quality parts and excellent engineering makes for a superb listening experience. Properly set up they will be tough to beat. However there other designs that can compete and if you are a tube guy it's possible they will not serve your needs. However some of the Conrad Johnson solid state amps, not all will easily give them a run for the money.
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss
So I'm genuinely curious about this, and I'd like your thoughts.
You: Are a current pass owner who has tried a number of other amps and stuck with Pass.
Please discuss your speakers, your pass and what other amps you feel your current set up bested.
I won't opine, but may ask questions to those who are not specific enough.
One thing I've heard a lot is the terms "refined." I don't know what this means, so if you can compare to other amps with more detail, would appreciate that.
Thanks!
Erik
