Pass Aleph P versions

I once owned a late version Aleph P. It certainly was good but it was somewhat lacking in dynamics. Maybe that's the same comment as above about the bass. Ultimately I only kept it maybe a year and then sold it. I found the gain controls of limited value and occasionally I found I had to unplug it then plug it in again to get the volume control to work.

I continue to use and greatly enjoy an Aleph Ono, which I have owned for well over a decade.

Zaffato, world you please tell me something more about the Ono ? I may have the chance to purchase both Aleph 1.7P and Ono.

French_fries, when you say 'original Aleph P' do you refer to the first version of it ?

Then again, what do you (all) think about using the Aleph with an ARC 100.2 solid state power amp ? Could it be a good mach in your opinion ?

Zavato, please forgive the mistake in your nickname: it's due to this **** automatic text corrector I use, very sorry.

French_fries,

I guess my take on the Aleph P is:
It was a Class A rated piece when it came out.
For those into Pass gear, in the ensuing 10 or 12 years,
other Pass preamps have eclipsed it.

What does the remote control?
