@christianb5s4 Also: Pass X260.8 mates better with REF6 than the JC1+ does. According to Pass, Audio Research is the most popular preamp combo with Pass amps (other than Pass preamps, of course - which aren’t that great, IMHO).
Pass x260.8 v. Parasound JC1+?
Greets all, Wondering what opinions are re the above monoblocks. I have a Cary SLP-05 pre-amp, KEF Blades (original), Esoteric K-03X CD player. Currently running a Pass Labs X350.5 and things sound real nice. But looking for some improvement. Thoughts, anyone? Thanks!

I perhaps should have mentioned I have a Pass XP22 pre w/ upgraded umbilical, which I do like very much given its neutrality and touch of warmth.
One part of it is an interest in possibly trying brand synergy with Pass amps, however I do really like how it sounds with JC5 albeit I wouldn't mind a touch more warmth and mid-range at times without losing detail and highs/shimmer.
I very much value all the feedback, especially from actual users. So thank you for sharing. |
