I just read the review of XA25 by Terry on hometheaterreview.com and it just reinforced my decision to go for the "little" Pass and pair it with my Tekton DI speakers. What a great review.
Also just also read Terry’s review and will be ordering the XA25 very soon. Thanks for your review. I have been a tube guy forever but this XA25 should give me the tube sound without the tube problems. It will be paired with a quality tube preamp. I am excited!
I'd love to hear some impressions of the XA25, especially how it compares / differs sonically to an FirstWatt F7, or a good SET amp, like the 300b based Coincident Franks, which I happily run now!
I have had the XA25 and Xp12 preamp on loan driving new Dynaudio C-1 Platinums fort a couple weeks. The speakers are not broke in yet but I think the amp is awesome. These speakers would probably like a little more juice but I could easily live with the sound. I hooked them up to my Goldener Triton Ones and they worked perfectly with them.
