Troy,
I started by simply responding to the OP's question. Gave my opinions on 3 amps he asked about.
You on the other hand, changed the topic, and sure you talked about a used amp that allowed you to pump up T+A gear. Made sure to take a shot at Pass labs, something you don't sell.
Come on, pretty transparent what you were doing. Maybe the OP should find a bargain basement Krell that can be sent in for the XD upgrade and save $1000's over a new one?
Or, why not a pair of JC1's that can be found used all the time?
Not real hard to go find posts by you where you shift an OP's question to talk about something you sell.
