Pass is the best for your money great sound and great service.What else is there?
Pass Labs vs Mark Levinson vs Parasound - best 2 channel amp used under $2,500?
I am in the market to to replace my dead Chapter Two ss amp. My system includes a SAS Audio tube preamp, Metronome tube CD player, Oppo Blue Ray, Talon Raven C speakers, Saturn dual 12" sub, Integra AV processor, Eastern Electric tube phono stage, and several turntables. The new amp will power the front channels (Talons) for HT and also for dedicated 2 channel listening. I haven't figured out how to run both preamps yet so likely the amp will reside in my HT system and when I want to platy records I'll have to switch cabling.
I would prefer an A/B amp over class D with at least 100 wpc. My last amp provided 300 wpc.
I listen mainly to jazz and vintage rock. My listening room is roughly 25' x 35' x 12' with rudimentary acoustical tweaks (will work on refining). I want a grain-free, natural sound with a deep soundstage. I am open to any amp but want to stay with established brands, as i have in the past purchased off brands that have performed well but don't hold their value or can't be repaired (like the Chapter Two).
I will eventually replace the preamp/processor and would love opinion son an appropriate pairing with the amp you suggest.
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.
