| Pass Labs Xa60.8 Class A or should it be called class A/B? From JA/Stereophile, "Specified as putting out 60W into 8 ohms and 120W into 4 ohms (both 17.8dBW), the XA60.8 considerably exceeded that power, delivering, at 1% total harmonic distortion (THD), 150W into 8 ohms (21.8dBW, fig.4), 240W into 4 ohm... | |

| Capacitor @pauly,Congratulations! Glad to hear the ODAMS capacitors worked out so well for you. No longer feel the need for your subwoofer? Now that's impressive!😊Charles | |
| Townshend Springs under Speakers @tobes, I did mention that it is certainly possible that speaker enclosure construction could be a variable that favors the choice of a particular isolation product. As more data points are accumulated It seems as I wrote earlier in this thread, t... | |

| Townshend Springs under Speakers @mglik,The Star Sound Apprentice platforms have provided those similar results in my audio system. The effect is as if the speakers disappeared in my room. I think it is fair to conclude that both products get the job done exceptionally well. I do... | |
| Thoress full-function vs Coincident CSLS/CSPS @ray19,My friend and I listened to music on each other’s systems a lot but we never swapped the line stages. We acknowledged that both were splendid sounding. Only took my 300b SET to his home because he was curious to hear them with his speakers... | |
