Experience with the Pass Labs XP-15 phono stage?

Thanks Big, but thier spec sheet on line says different.  
I'm looking at a used unit here in Canada and trying to figure what's real. 
Also trying to figure are the balance outputs offering the three gain settings of 
56,66,76. I see on the XP17 the Balanced and Single line outputs are different
gain values. 😎

This will be my first external Phono stage so I don't know what to expect. 
The stage in my Mcintosh can't be that bad but the flexibility with an external
will be nice. Want to switch to a low output Grado with .5-1.0 mv.  
This Pass XP15 should be the ticket. 👍

Expect a really quiet background and lots of dynamics and detail. It’s a really nice unit. I can’t say how it compares to the McIntosh, but in general a purpose built stand alone phono stage, especially of this quality is going to exceed one included in another device.

Reach out to Pass. If you can get the serial number, they can probably tell you if it is one of the older units with the different gain settings (if that’s a thing) and answer any other questions you have. I had some questions about mine which I purchased second hand and they were very helpful.

Hey Greg
You're right, I took a chance and called today and someone picked up. 
They were getting ready to start up tomorrow after the shut down. 
Super helpful, buying U.S. is clearly the only way to go. 
He confirmed the Gain settings as follows :
Fixed MM @ 46db
MC is 56,66,76. Balanced 
MC is 50,60,76. Unbalanced 
He said the marriage of Pass Labs and any Grado cartridge is fantastic. 
Looks like I can't go wrong. Some I heard prefer the 15 over the newer 17. 
Warmer sounding etc. Either way this 15 is a $1,000 cheaper then any used
XP17 I can find so it's a no brainer. Rather throw that extra cash into a 
better cartridge. Thanks Greg. 😎

Good to hear!
