| Experienced audiophiles best speaker agree with Nolitan 110%.Had lot's of Dyns over the years. Now have Spendors. Love them. Wish I had gotten into these first. | |

| any audiophile guitarists out there? I have been playing into a Crate Vintage Club 30 for 15 years now. Sweetest class A EL34 tube amp i've heard. Sustain and crunch galore. Not the most precise but who cares when you hear that tone. Real spring reverb to boot. I am currently loving ... | |
| pass lab owners: can i afford one? you would have to be an idiot to leave class A amps on 24/7. I know none of us are guilty of (being) that on this forum, so there should be no issue with affording to run the Pass :) | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? it's all fun right? Try the Pass X150.5 I think you might have a winner. | |
| Pass amps + Power Cords ?? I'm so happy I can't detect differences among power cables. That would suck. | |
| High-value ICE offerings or Ayre V3, ARC 100.2 @TwindalVery similar hardware!Had a Bel Canto S300 for a while. Did not like it at all. It would have made a good sub amp, but everything else sounded the same as my Yamaha surround sound receiver. It was driven by higher end Arc tube pre and very... | |
| dynaudio c1 upgrade? Helena3825Very interesting comments about your experience with the Dyns...also Cwinfrey. I too have found that a Plinius amp (sa102) with my contour s3.4s and s5.4s made for a too warmish curtailed high end; seemed homogenized.I did find a great m... | |
| Speaker break in ? Aerial 9 went fr bad to amazing cool. Break-in always seems to go from bad to amazing. Could you imagine the other way around?Did anything else change in your rig w/ the Aerial 9's?Personally, I have never experienced a major shift in the the performance of speakers. I tend to b... | |
| Pass labs x350.5 VS. McIntosh MC402 I re-read your post above about the Denon amp. Not knocking Denon, but 400 watts denon style, and 400-500 watts pass x250.5 style: no comparison. The Pass design increasingly makes more power into lower loads with ease and grace. I could not imagi... | |
| Pass labs x350.5 VS. McIntosh MC402 Goodwr3nchIf you are serious about driving your speakers to those levels from time to time(and I think you are), you should be thinking minimum McIntosh 501 monos. The pass x350.5 would be pretty sick (as in good) as well. Methinks the McIntosh MC... | |
| Detailed sound? Real? Lokie nails another" I find it a little amusing though that they never admit it and they always say itÂ’s about the music."first step, is admitting the addiction.I am trying to get out the door...I admire your sonic quest. Good luck! | |
| Detailed sound? Real? Agree with OP and Lokie --"I think this hobby can be split between two types of people: Those who listen to music and those who listen to stereo gear." to the point, and 100% class A no distortion or phase shift truth! Forget chasing absolute soun... | |
| Pass labs x350.5 VS. McIntosh MC402 This is yet another example of the compelling differences amoung sonic tastes!! Both are exquisite for sure. A while back I had a Pass X250.5. It was driving my Dynaudio Contour S3.4s. A friend had the MC402 with his Dyn s3.4s. We swapped amps. I ... | |
| BAT VK-5i with Pass Labs X250 Hello. I ran a X250.5 with a Vk5i. It was a great combo. Midband to die for. Great resolve and frequency extension. This was with dying output caps on the vk5i (leakage). I replaced the output caps with Mundorf M supreme somethings and it was incr... |
