How do you owners of the Pass Labs int 250 like them?

I auditioned the 509x and, strangely enough, I found it didn’t really grab me as much as some of the other amps I tried...Simaudio 340ix, VAC 700i, Pass int 60, NAIM Supernait 3, Hegel H390, and Gryphon D300. My top two picks out of that bunch (to my ears) were the D300 and Pass Labs int 60. I also really liked the Supernait 3. Another outstanding amp.

ALL of these amps were amazing in their own way (including the 509x). But I liked the Pass Labs int 60 so much (especially through the MSB) I called and talked to Kent at Pass Labs. We visited about the int 60 vs int 250. They have very similar sonic personalities but they're not exactly alike. I’ve not actually auditioned the int 250, but Kent suggested the int 250 vs the int 60 for the type of music I listen to most (bluegrass and small combo jazz) due to the percussive attack of the acoustic instruments in those genres. The int 250 loves percussive music. Furthermore, Kent’s wife is a serious mandolinist so I think Kent knows something about what he’s talking about. Don’t get me wrong...I think the 509x is one of the best integrated amps money can buy. But the int 250 will likely fit my application better. Anyway, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I noticed a nice Int-250 for sale here on Audiogon for $7,500 asking @audiofound 

Yeah, I’ve had to pass up (no pun intended) some great buys. And not just amps. But I can’t purchase anything til January anyway. Since the int 250 is actually a custom made amp for each customer, except for demos, I’m committed to my dealer. I would be whether it’s required or not. My dealer’s been so good and so helpful to me. Besides, I know I could exchange it if I didn’t like it. But thanks for the heads up.

That’s a great way to approach any purchases! Best of luck and please keep us informed in January 

Waiting for my INT-250 to be delivered. 
Output to Sopra 2 Focal .
Input NDX2 + Innuos Zen MkIII
Can't wait.
The demo was superb. Way better than the Diablo 300 that was on paper and after first audition before listening to the PL my first choice....
