Classe Cam-200 or Pass Labs X-150

i have had a chance to hear the classe cam mono's not the pass labs.

what i did hear stopped me in my tracks ( sounded like live music as i was walking by, that is very unusual).
i ended up listening to the system for over 2 hours. imo they are a fantasic sounding amp that i could live with for a very, very long time.

i own pse studio v mono's and the classe cams are the only amp that i would replace them with. the cams are a bargain. where can you get mono's that sound that great and will push anything ?

they do have a sweet sound at the top end but they are are also neutral and will pass a musical source to the speakers and have no problem painting a colorful sonic picture(i never heard a krell or a mark levinson pull that off, they have a tendancy to be grainy or dark sounding).

it is rare thing for a solid state amp to have the positive attributes of tube and solid state mixed together. the clasee cams do.

I dont think you can go wrong with them.

I TRADED MY KRELL FPB-250MC MONO BLOCKS FOR A PAIR OF THE
CAM-200 MONO AMPS. THEY ARE VERY WARM AND FLEXIBLE WITH
WHATEVER EQUIPMENT YOU ADD TO IT. THE RETAIL PRICE OF
$4000.00/ PAIR IS A STEAL. MY CLASSE DEALER WILL GIVE YOU
A GOOD DEAL ON A PAIR. I'VE OWNED MINE FOR A YEAR.
THEY REALLY SHOT MY IDEA OF MORE $$$ IS BETTER WHEN IT
COMES TO BUYING AMPS. THEY ONLY WEIGH 60 LBS. EVEN A GAL
CAN MOVE THEM AROUND. THE ABSOLUTE SOUND STILL RATES THE
CLASSE MONO'S AS THEIR "BEST BARGAIN". THEY LOVED THE SOUND.
GOOD LUCK.
SALLY

Go with the Classe as I run two Classe 25 bi-amped and Martin Logan Acsents and I'm very happy with te sound.
Classe and Logans work great together!
Good Luck!

Both of this amps are good.I have spend time listening
to classe they are very musical, Pass lab are warm
sounding, more detail.Have you considered plinius sa 100,
this amp, Its a very very goood amp, I used it with my'
martin logan quest.Its only my 2 cents opinion,at the end
its your choice, and your preference.

Great, accurate answer Mikesinger!
