Mark Levinson 534 compared to Pass 350.8
Thank you!  
What do I need?
I want HT surround sound for 2001. And for other wonderful composers whose music was used in stereo movies.  
Fo Audio Research Ref 10 owners, Best Amp?
I’ve tried also the Pass xa 25 and the VTL S200. Now the VTL was fantastic it was a keeper however I bought it as a demo and when I called them with a question the first thing I was asked very sharply was where I bought it from. I have never deal... 
Fo Audio Research Ref 10 owners, Best Amp?
I've thought about it but I often read that they get so hot they need a fan behind them or they have a fan built in and when the music goes silent you can hear the fan! I am so sensitive to that kind of sound no matter how low. When there is no so... 
Fo Audio Research Ref 10 owners, Best Amp?
250.8 has nice but not great depth and little width and sparkle. I had the 350.8 which I liked a lot(maybe it was this one because of the extra wattage.) But it was a heavy beast to have in an apartment though now I wish I had figured out a way t...

For city apartment dweller audiophiles. Have you ever had neighbors banging on your walls?
The spikes supporting the wooden base the speakers sit on.  It's a pretty big coincidence because I had been playing music at that level for a few years from when she first moved in, early morning and in the evening, and it never had been a probl... 
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
Well then Pass is a well known and admired popular brand in the audiophile world. I would like to know if others have used up market cords with Pass and found they did improve the sound. Or does everybody who buys Pass use the stock cord? I woul... 
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
I think I've been honest in saying I put in an expensive AU power cord and did not hear a difference but I did with the Shunyata. When I have the time I will be experimenting with the AU power cord on different components. The AU gets great review... 
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
Nope not click bait. The used Shunyata Sigma v2 NR I bought is for my ARC pre. Even used the Sigma is not cheap.  But I liked the improvement. I don't know why that would have been deleted.  I'm one of those I know what I like people. I'm not an e... 
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
I see a number of threads which are of a subject that I have a great interest in and when I click on it it has been deleted. I always wonder if a manufacturer has complained because their product came off badly. But then everybody's experience is ... 
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
Yes my amp is a stereo Pass 250.8 and the manufacturer said don’t bother. I originally had a $500 going into the Pass and replaced it with the expensive cord. I don’t think my system is entry level. Maybe mid. I am going to place the expensive cor... 
For those familiar with Sonus Faber
I have an Arc ref 10 and a pass 250.8. So I’ve already spent a lot of money there. I was also looking at the Maxima Amators but one woofer? What are massed strings and brass going to sound like? I listen to many types of music. I do not have a la... 
For those familiar with Sonus Faber
Thanks to all.  
Am I right for this forum?
If you are happy with your system, if the sound fills you with passion and immerses you in the joy or sadness of the music and you want to keep listening to it all the time without getting fatigued and have to pull yourself away from it when respo...
