I owned the XA100.5, 60.5, 30.5 and X250.5 and next week I
will receive a 2 year old 350.5. I am thinking about the 350.8
later as well in 2015.
Here comes an important note. I used the XA100.5 with Purist
Audio Aqueous powercables with Oyaide 004.
Later I used the X250.5 with the Purist Audio Limited Edition
with F1/M1 from Oyaide.
I got a better articulation of voices with the last set.
Voices became a lot more sounding like the XA100.5 in the mid
freq. I had a better speed. The endresuls were even better
than the first set.
I had a few conversations about this with Pass Labs. Many
people only use a low level of the whole potential of an amp.
Another example: in the last few months I bought 2 sets of
Audioquest Wel Signature XLR cables. These gave me a new level
in listening. Voices and instruments are so much more phycical
and the black level is gone to a new level as well. The other
thing is that you can hear very precise what height does in a
recording.
You can buy a 600.5 (8) or 160.5 (8) with good interconnects
but you still will not have the same level in height and black
as with a much cheaper Pass Labs with stunning cables like the
Wel Signature.
Many people only get only a low level out of their amps what
they are capable of!!
