Current Pass integrateds?


Interested in hearing any experience you may have with the current Pass 

integrated amplifiers.  They are expensive, but I have had good success with 

this designers past products.  Thanks.

I compared an int250 against Accuphase E800 and Boulder 866 at a dealer. I preferred the Pass.

His newest FirstWatt, the F8 power amplifier, is excellent. Paired with a Van Alstine Transcendence RB 10 tube preamp, the sound is realistic without calling attention to itself ("see how vividly there I am?!"). Of course, your speakers must be compatible with the power amp.

 

I have had a Pass INT25 for 18 months now. It is not going anywhere.

Other Amps I have tried- Carey 120 MK2, LSA Voyager Ganfet.

The thing is well built and well protected. Made in CA. More money

but you soon forget that outlay and enjoy the music. Pass has the 

best distortion. haha

 

The 25 and 60 are both excellent amplifiers and Pass's build quality is right up there with the very best. The sound is extremely musical and refined timbrally. They are not the last word in "slam" but are hard to beat in their price range in other respects.
