Anybody Try A5s With Pass XA30.8?


Hey Folks,

I have a 30.8 on the truck for delivery today.  It will replace a Threshold T-400 that is all class A at 150w/ch.  Since what is left of Threshold is here in Houston, I will take the T400 to them and decide whether to just have them go through it or do the upgrade they offer to a more recent Stasis circuit.

One of the other upgrades I am considering is a pair of Magico A5s.  I know some will say the extra AB power if the 30.8 is plenty, blah, blah, blah, but I am interested in hearing from someone who has actually heard the combination.

Hope you folks are well and good,
Robert

Use my A5’s with Pass 60.8 mono’s.  No problem in a 29 by 16 by 10 foot room and listening about 10 feet from speakers.  Loudest I listen is maybe 90 - 95 db peaks, usually much less.

The 30.8 at half the power should be OK at the moderate volumes specified.

Good luck!
