Pass Labs xa30.8 died
Thanks so much 
Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce
I’ve loved my sophias for years now.  I’m thinking of upgrading my amp at this point. After much reading, a lot of people recommend pass labs....My Belles has been great but the switch has broken twice now (it currently won’t turn off!).any though... 
Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce
Hi, yes I have them! I have been so incredibly busy that I have not had time to properly research calculated placement, etc. It is next on my agenda. Anyway... Right out the crate, the difference from the 2ce's is striking. I previously had the va... 
Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce
To answer a few comments/questions-I plan to keep the 2ce's. They are going into my basement to replace some Linn speakers (hooked up to a rega integrated amp and dj setup).I did take the plunge and bought the sophias. I'll have them in a few week...

No sound in left channel on red LED on in 2ce's
I talked to Belles again today, and he didn't know what the problem is. I am buying a 150 v2 as an upgrade, and he is taking my 150A in trade. I hope that fixes the problem. I also talked to Richard Vandersteen today. He also thought it was likely...

Follow up here: Dave repaired my amp though he said he really couldn't find anything seriously wrong... Everything worked fine for 2 weeks then the same thing happened! Unbelievable. I am one unhappy person. It took Dave 2 months to repair it last... 
No sound in left channel on red LED on in 2ce's
Thanks everyone!@Marakanetz - I think it is the Belles... I called Dave Belles, and he said to mail it in. I completely disconnected the preamp channels, and the same thing happened, so it seems to be completely originating out of the left channel...
