You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss

So I'm genuinely curious about this, and I'd like your thoughts.

You: Are a current pass owner who has tried a number of other amps and stuck with Pass.

Please discuss your speakers, your pass and what other amps you feel your current set up bested.

I won't opine, but may ask questions to those who are not specific enough.
One thing I've heard a lot is the terms "refined." I don't know what this means, so if you can compare to other amps with more detail, would appreciate that.
Thanks!

Hey @jeffvegas,

Well, I meant to keep this pass positive, but can you give some very specific examples of a Pass amp you did not like, and compare it to something you did and why?


What were the sound characteristics you heard? Also, what speakers?


Thanks,
Erik

Erik, please do not take offense. Knowing you do not " favor " amplifiers designed by Pass , why do you, instead, give reasons of your dissatisfaction for them, as you have stated over and over again in your posts.
And there it is

jeff keep him happy, just say Class-D eats them alive, even though they are all MOSFETS also!
BTW: Bi-Polars (BJT) rule in all sonic ways, especially for delivering current into low impedance.

George:
You aren't making any sense at all.
Maybe making simple declarative statements will help.

Best,

Hi George,
Calling any one on this forum non-human is simply not acceptable. I'm reporting your post and you.

Stop doing that to me and anyone else here.
