| Vinyl pops and clicks: Can they be eliminated?? Why don't you just rip off his epaulets and break his tonearm across your knee!

| Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5 If I were you I would contact Pass Labs directly and talk to them about your dealer. I think it's ridiculous that you cannot audition these amplifiers. You're a proven customer. Does your dealer really expect people, particularly people who have s... | |

You will have a better chance of making a good decision if you listen to each one without expectations of what they will or won't do. Listening wi... | |
