What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard?

How are the Pass and J2 different and similar in sound? I have a j2 and love it. I may upgrade to Pass 60 watt monos

Suprised not more mention of jeff rowland his integrated is around38k...not one mention of solution ?? Mispelled

I agree with roberjerman, Bedini 25/25. I had one and traded it. I should have held on to it, but I switched to a tube amp that is also excellent.

SS Amp, credo "Do No Harm"

For me, the only justification for SS is the need for power, invisible/inaudible power. To drive inefficient speakers you simply love to volume levels you must occasionally have.

Best SS I have Owned, in my system for years, was McIntosh MC2250. Driving JSE Infinite Slope Model 2’s. Mine tested accurate to 305 wpc at lab day at Harvey’s the day I picked it up. A dead quiet beast, absolutely no idea it was on.

Went back to my super efficient horn speakers, No distracting meters, on low shelf, adjacent to alternate 30/35wpc tube mono-blocks. Everybody chose tubes over SS when I swapped back and forth.

McIntosh 600w/c vintage late 80's. Bought it secondhand but returned it due to hum. Replaced with Krell 250wpc not nearly as fine driving the B&W 803s3
