Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else
This happens with First Watt. I built myself a couple of ACAs and it is.But on the XA30.8 it seems to me that it donima the second harmonic and when it leaves class A, it dominates the third.In fact, from how the Xa30.8 sounds, it looks like a sec...

Yes, it is true that Klipsch are not high definition speakers. but this should not hide that the XA30.8 has a forcefulness problem and especially the XP12 have a resolution problem. 
Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else
Yes, I know.Another option is to see how the XA30.8 behaves when it comes out of Class A to go to A / B if I decide to switch from much less efficient speakers. I don't know if I read one day that Nelson commented that he went from accentuating th...

If you do go with the Pass X250 and AR Ref 5 pre ... take a close look at the gain matching. I have Pass XA 60.8, AR Ref 6 and Avantgarde UNO speakers.  The I love the sound of my setup but I can’t turn the volume control past 5 without blowing ...

I would very much like to be able to test the Xa25. You in the USA have it very easy because the manufacturers offer demos at home but in Europe it is not like that.The wiring is not the problem.

I now have a Luxman M900u, and it has the attributes you say you are seeking - - a lot of definition, wondrous soundstaging, while still retaining a smidge of warmth. And they do have plenty of drive, their Japanese pedigree aside (where did that...

voy a aclarar las cosas. Sé perfectamente cómo son los Cornwalls III: grandes, dinámicos, cálidos pero no tienen definición. el pase 30.8 también sé cómo es, pero en comparación con otros amplificadores es vago y carece de autoridad. Sé que si qui...

Correcto. Creo que es el paso más sensato. aun así, la serie xa tiene serios problemas de fuerza y ​​definición. 
Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else
Yes. in fact it is how I currently have it. more resolution, more dynamic, more clarity but less warmth and depth

I am a much bigger fan of Luxman than I am of Pass.Another really good, but different sounding, solid state amp you might want to listen to is Ayre.could you describe the differences?

I suggest settling on your speakers before doing anything else.I guess that's what I'll do I have heard some impressive Usher BE10s although it is not exactly what I am looking for and the second hand price is very good.also, I wanted to talk abou...

I think the Pass Labs X250.8 / AR 5SE combo might work very nicely for youthat is an option

sorry but i find mac electronics terrible. I've been listening to the mc275s and I didn't like them at all. they had little delicacy compared to Pass.

The only tube amplification that I have liked is the Jadis 120 monophonic blocks. Really brutal, an incredible push, an incredible detail recovery. But they have a problem, that they make a lot of noise while they are silent. Changing all the tube...

Thank you for your advices. D'agostino is a lot of money for me, I can't reach them. Outside the USA it is very very expensive.Gryphon Diablo is much more accessible, especially in Europe and Soulution has a distributor nearby.Can you elaborate on...
