| Pass XA30.5 Sweet sound, romantic and much more powerful than the rated watts might suggest. Into an 8 ohm load, it easily goes past 100 watts in class A/B (~200 watts for 4 ohm load) before clipping. More bias current than a lot of class A/B amps with much m... | |
| Speaker cable suggestion I ordered a pair of Nordost Frey series 1. They should arrive by Friday. :) | |
| Pass Int-150 or Int-30A for PMC Speakers? If you have the room for it, go for the Maestro :D Bass performance should emulate modern EDM concerts. XA100.5 should stay in class A even for big dynamic swings with these 93db mammoths.One caution though, is to address your power distribution i... | |
| Speaker cable suggestion Hi Jmcgrogan2, thank you for the info. It's very useful. At the moment, I would say my system has quite good musical weight (esp. after I "somewhat" addressed my power distribution with PS Audio products - dectet, power port premier receptacle and... | |
| Speaker cable suggestion What about Frey? It seems, for a little over $1k, I should be able to get a pair. I'd think the synergy with the Heimdall ICs should be good. How would Frey stack up against Stealth Hybrid MLT, AZ SS, etc?I currently have one of the sc mentioned a... | |
| Pass Int-150 or Int-30A for PMC Speakers? Diablo it is then :) Still XA100.5 + Diablo will sound heavenly. Come back and let us know..I'd be very interested to hear what you think. | |
| PC for Electrocompaniet-Focal-Wadia combo I haven't tried many receptacle. Regarding power port premier, I read a few good reviews and I have had good experience with their Dectet and power cord, so decided to give it a shot. What I can say is it stomps the generic cheapo receptacle that ... | |
| Speaker cable suggestion I've been waiting for Heimdall (8' length and banana) to be available on A'gon for quite some time but mostly Frey's come up quite often. I use Heimdall ICs. | |
| Speaker cable suggestion Thank you all for the suggestions. I think I will give a good look at at AZ SS. How about Synergistic Research Tesla Accelerator? I've heard a lot of good things about SR and even with Tesla now, I think, discontinued, it might be worthwhile to tr... | |
| Pass Int-150 or Int-30A for PMC Speakers? Congrats Chuck! It seems money is not much an object and in that case, I'd like to suggest Utopia Scala over Diablo. :) XA100.5, XP-20 and a pair of Scala would be a killer system. I wet my pants talking about it. lol I currently have XA30.5, XP-1... | |
| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? I have XA30.5 and Purist Audio LE PC is more expensive than my amp. :( | |
| JM Lab Nova Be or Eggleston andra 3 ? anyone? At this level, I think it's worthwhile to look at Focal Utopia Scala. IME, Focal and Pass are quite a good match. I currently have Electra 1028 Be with Pass XA30.5/XP-10 combo and very pleased with the system. I have owned Paradigm Studios/Sigs, F... | |
| PC for Electrocompaniet-Focal-Wadia combo Hi,I have the same speakers as yours with Pass Labs gears. Just recently, I tried PS Audio Dectet power center ($500), Power Port Premier ($100) receptacle and AC-10 power cord (price varies on length and new/used) that connects the receptacle fro... | |
| Pass Int-150 or Int-30A for PMC Speakers? XA30.5 is the only stereo in XA.5 line and all the others are mono. Maybe X250.5? Mark once told me X.5s have more bass slam and XA.5s are about seduction and refinement. | |
| Pass Int-150 or Int-30A for PMC Speakers? Chuck, just to make sure...your speakers are 1007 Be, correct? I had 1008 Be and felt the bass was a little lacking in my 18x25 room. So I moved up to 1028 Be and still find XA30.5 drives these 3-way floorstanders without a sweat (meter stays on t... |
