Another tempest in a teacup forum.....rub some's fur the wrong way, and the static turns into a thunderstorm yielding a flood...

(A statement:  I have no particular opinion, pro or con, re Pass amps.  IMHO, they have no more appeal nor dislike than any other product; as usual, at least in my universe.  It's another Preference.  Just like Ford vs. Dodge, or anything else that has a competitor.)

Up to this moment....the response I see 'above' this post reminds me of the dung-storm (love that comment, btw...) that Muslims have re Any depictions of Mohammed and/or Allah....

"OMG! Sacrilege!  We must destroy the Infidel that Dares to inflict True Believers with this....this....this Hersey!"

Chill out...

It's not like the man broke into your house, dragged your beloved amp into the front yard, urinated on it, doused it with the collected dog dung and gasoline, and lit it.

I can see the 10PM news (or the SNL 'send-up') now...

"Fringe Audiophiles Go Ballistic; Tolerant Neighbors Go Bemused"

Great PR, y'all.....;)

Stand your ground, Eric. ^5's.

" He is one of the messiah’s of modern day audio, "

...and we've seen what happens when That....and Kool-Aid, sneakers, UFO's, and all manner of 'statements' flow.....

It's an Amplifier.
Not a piece of the 'True Cross'....the majority of which is likely to be splinters sold to gullible tourists...

Not that Pass amp owners are gullible, no.....apparently subject to some sort of hysteria or enthusiasm, perhaps...

*sheesh*

Sorry but with that kind of statement you have no idea on what Nelson Pass has given to modern day "solid state amp design" since the 70’s starting with.

As I have said before I don’t like the sound of his later "Mosfet Amps", I much prefer his earlier "Bi-polar designs", but I don’t do what Eric is doing, by going out of his way to start threads belittling NP designs without knowing **** about design himself.

Isn't this kinda the basis for your post? You where offended...

King O The Snowflakes :)

In no way shape or form was I offended.
I asked a simple question YU Gotta Hate Pass Labs.
I never actually did get a response throughout the noise and comments. 
The person I asked the question of has had numerous negative posts regarding Nelson's amps. I am in no way shape or form a Pass Labs zealot. It simple works well in my rig.
It appears I struck a nerve with my original post. Anyway
Happy Listening
