Short List of Amps I prefer over the Pass Labs XA25 or INT 25


I am anxious to see what comes.

If your response includes the word "But" please restrain yourself.
chorus
The only amp from Yamaha that was any good, and that was for only bass duties was the P2200.

Cheers George
Have any of you compare the pass amp with Bedini 25/25 100/100 ? For 1/3 prices of pass amp , I’m happy with my Bedini , I also have Yamaha as2100 , mx1 and they are not far behind but I prefer Bedini 
Chorus, I recommend that you get your hands on a new or used Sugden A21SE class A signature single ended. I’m using it on my Tannoys and it sounds wonderful. $3250 new....30 watts into 8 ohms, 40 into 4 ohms....no bells, no whistles, just 5 line inputs, a record out, and a remote......my Tannoys are the Legacy Eaton's....
In my opinion, the question posed by the OP and the responses that followed are all presented in the absence of the central question of what speakers will be partnered with the proposed amplifiers. Without this information, most if not all the recommendations boil down to personal preferences.
