Pls help me decide Pass Labs X250.8 or Luxman M900u
I hardly contribute because of all the negative responses, so I hope I don't regret this. My experience was with Pass amplifiers, all driving a pair of Wilson Watt Puppy 5.1 speakers - which present a very difficult load, are very efficient and r...

432 EVO
firstgrowth Thanks for sharing your experiences and providing that benefit for everyone. Being adverse, hostile or nasty accomplishes nothing constructive. I certainly appreciate your feedback and hope no one ever second guess themselves. I'm ... 
432 EVO
I'm just trying to get experience with comparisons between the 2 brands / models. It's too expensive to purchase one and then find out the other one is preferred. I once purchased a unit on a recommendation, I wasn't happy with it and sold it at ...
