Pass Labs x250.8 vs tube amps
@chungjh Class D you say? How about Tube + Class D monos 600w @8ohms. Effective to drive your Sound Labs, with ease. Quick warmup, and ready for listening. https://www.psaudio.com/stellar-m1200-mono-amplifier/ PS audio Mono 1200s. Ultra-linear, high-current, ICE Edge Class D technology for the output stage; and a discrete, Class-A vacuum tube for the all-important input stage. |
I think @ebm is right. I use a X350.8 and I believe your X250.8 is warmer sounding. I don't think it will ever be the same as a tube power amp. I like a warm and full midrange and don't think any solid state power amp will ever give me that close enough to say a Conrad Johnson. If my speakers didn't need the high current and I could live with the heat and cost of retubing, I would have gone for a Conrad Johnson. |
