Best Class A amp with SLAM
Hahahahaha.....funny guy Atmashere!! 
Deciding between Yamaha or Marantz
I compared many amps in my life. They have a very important influence on the stage as well. When you compare Onkyo, Pass Labs, Primare, Denon, Marantz and Arcam on the same speakers the difference is huge. The Pass Labs has by far the widest and d... 
Replace Silver interconnect cable , please advice
I tested many interconnects on Pass amps. You need an interconnect which can give a very sharp and realistic dimension of instruments and voices. Pass Labs give a deep and wide stage, but does not give the small and direct image you need. You need... 
Replace Silver interconnect cable , please advice
Silver can even sound more musical than copper. It depends about the quality of the silver what is used. One thing is a fact that the best quality in silver Always beats the best copper in resolution, speed and drive. I use the Acapella pure silve... 
Good speaker match for the Devialet, Magico ?
If I where you I first would take all your time to listen to some speakers in the price range you are looking for. because it Always is a personal matter. After this I would look for an amp what fitts best to the speaker you bought. Have fun and t...

When I compare for example the Onkyo TX-NR5010 between XT32 and Pro the difference is stunning. Like you have a set which is 2-3 times more expensive. The drive and timing is superior. Like you bought a biggerpoweramp. But also the difference in s...

Soon I will buy the new pure silver Audioquest Wild dog subwoofer cable with DBS72 when it is available. Pure silver will give you more speed and more details also from 60-140 hz.

The XA100.5 sounded great on the Wilson puppy 7. But for the Maxx I understand why you miss the slamm. I would try the X600.5. And yess you need the warm sound of an amp like the Pass. The Maxx can sound harsh. I heard them more often bad than goo...

It doesn't matter what speaker you use. I would use the PLW-15 Always from 16-140hz. But you need Audyssey pro to use it this far. Without I also could not use it this far. Without Audyssey pro there are different rules. The PLW-15 is without Audy...

I think I would go for the X.5 series. I also owned the XA100.5. I also prefer the extra slamm and weight of the X.5 series. The high's are also different compared to the XA.5 series. There are a few Krell amps I also like. But the focus on the ti... 
Best Class A amp with SLAM
It is a nice amp, even delivers a lot of Class A watts. Even when you play loud it still will be class A. You nedd to play at very high levels to get into the Class B mode.

Should listen to the X600.5 and X1000.5. Most of the time you will drive in pure Class A. But you will have more weight also when you play less loud. The thing I love is the focus it gives on the sound of instruments. You can hear the timbre of in...

I owned many Pass Labs poweramps. If you choose for the XA or X series ( Always .5 ofcourse)you both cannot go wrong. The XA are a little more musical and the stage is maybe more 3D. But the drive and speed of the X series is better. Also the high... 
Need a very neutral interconnect-
Many highend systems at shows can give a deep and wide stage, but the individual focus of instruments and voices is not really palpable. But when you use all different parts very precise you even can get a combination of a deep and wide stage with...
