Best Integrated, period.

Bill, if you have a contribution of personal findings to offer to the topic at hand, I know everyone here would welcome your opinion. E.G. what can you tell us about the performance of the Pass integrated? G.

Hi grant, I suspect many of us may be members of the Half Century audio/music club. . . yet, may I suggest to all and sundry we abandon the game of "ma fiddlestock's much bigger'n yourn?" [grins!]

Impossible to listen to an amp without source and speakers/headphones. The question is moot and I hope this thread dies here and now. Try another question, like what's a good integrated that goes well with (insert source, speakers, cables, room size dimensions, shape and treatment). Then we can have a conversation.

I'll be 59 next month.

Had my first hi-fi (turntable, mono amp, and single speaker) assembled when I was 9.

Actually I started building kit electronics at that time as well.

My hearing is as good or better than yours Grant but thanks for the concern.
