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

Nope. That’s Steve Hoffman Forum bottom feeder gear. Stereophile gives great reviews to anybody that advertises with them. If you gave a favorable comparison to say PS Audio then I would say OK....MAYBE. Esoteric isnt known for great amps either....just good Disc Spinners which your in a constant 2 year Upgrade cycle and constantly chasing your tail. Their amps are sterile sounding. Many of the brands you listed are Minor league to say the least. Luxman vs Rogue?? No idea what your talking about. Highly doubtful you’ve ever heard the M900U/C900U Combo....if you did you would leave your Rogue out at the Curb.

Your right they DID move. From Swanky Bucks County (VERY Expensive to live) to the middle of freakin NOWHERE in NE PA Pocono Mountain Region where property is dirt cheap.  That's progress for ya!!  A house up there is 1/4 of what it cost in Bucks and taxes are probably 80% Cheaper. Business must be booming....HAHA  Next Stop....West Virginia Coal Miner Country

Hey Joeinid,

Before you start trashing gear in my collection can you do me the courtesy of waiting until I sell it first?? ESPECIALLY cause you sold it to me in the first place. That would be the considerate thing to do right?  LOL

I might have to start a rumor about AG Speakers...like if you get the Copper Colored Horn ones and place them too close to a window they can act as a Magnifying glass with the sunlight and burn your house down!!  :)  Happy Easter Buddy
