Pass x250.8 vs Boulder 850 vs Spectral DMA250

@all I mentioned Spectral because the personal home Serblin setup was Spectral (and -not confirmed- Krell KSA also), of course the sepakers are tested on a wide range of amplifiers but sure in the first instance, for the old SF production, was Spectral.

Also for me Spectral is not my taste, even with non-classical music: recently I auditioned a Stradivari + DMA260 + 30SS2 with of course Oracle MIT cabling and the result was poor if you consider the expectations from the level of these electronics.
In other words: when I listen a system like this, I expect a jaw-drop :-)

But I want to give Spectral a chance in my personal setup becuase it is easy for me obtain a power amp from the distributor (who is the same in Italy as Boulder).

MIT with Spectral doesn't make any sence at all. You must be a F... mongol to make this combination. Why? Very simple you need to be aware of the properties Spectral owns. And the properties of MIT. They both give a deep and wide stage, but they lack to give an intimate and realistic proportion of instruments and voices.

In the last 2 years I have proven that MIT are poor cables. I did win all battles with Audioquest against MIT cables. How simple life can be.

All these people are now aware of what an intimate image means. They all use the same words; I enjoy my music a lot more.

Many people believe what people say in audio. Use your own ears. That is why the best sound always wins. With products with a higher endresult it is very easy for me to eliminate products like MIT.

@Bo1972: The only MIT I really appreciate are the digital ones (oh, but they don't have any filter !).
For the rest I agree with you, note that MIT and Spectral is often used in Italy because the dealer is the same ;-) But now we are OT...

The dealer is the same and that says all. In the past when I sold Avalon they said MIT is the best combination with Avalon. This was bassed on political grounds. This I really hate. I want to end this.

I have proven in the last years that Audioquest cables eliminates MIT with Avalon with ease. Just put the Audioquest against the MIT in a battle and you understand why it is inferior.

Many people in audio work with their own political agenda. This is not based on the best endresult possible for a client. These people I will eliminate out of the world of audio personal!

"For the rest I agree with you, note that MIT and Spectral is often used in Italy because the dealer is the same ;-) But now we are OT..."

It probably goes a step further. Spectral usually makes the dealer use MIT or they won't be allowed to sell their products. I think that's how they do it here in the US. Spectral forces the dealers to use MIT. A few years ago when I went to a dealer to demo Spectral, I brought some of my gear into the store to see how well it would match with what I already had. The dealer got mad at me. When he went away to help other customers, I hooked up some Tara and AQ speaker cables that I brought with me. They were both better than the MIT. lol. When the dealer saw my cables his face turned bright red. I don't know if he was mad because I changed the cables without asking or he was mad that they sound better than his MIT. He chased me out of the store. lol. This probably happens to Bo all the time.
