Which preamp to go with pass labs x150.8


Hi all, 

I am getting Pass Labs X150.8. I am considering following preamps: 

Simaudio Moon P740 

Ayre KX-5 Twenty 

Audio Research LS28SE

Pass Labs X12

Which preamp would sound the best with the amp? 

Thanks for your input.

Some of us have tube DAC, pre and a hybrid tube / SS power amp….. and are saving $ or is it € for that tube power supply for the turntable…..

i think maybe rubles are what may be needed Jim!! 🤣

Aric Audio! His preamps are a sublime pairing with SS gear. I have the original Motherlode first paired with Pass monos and now with a Coda Model 16 and I cannot speak enough about his tube knowledge, craftsmanship and customer service. 

+1 for Aric Audio. I'm using his Super 6SN7 (with upgraded PS and volume control) with my Pass X30.8. A great combo and big step up from my previous preamp, CJ CT-5. Aric has great customer service and can taylor his preamp to your needs.

 

Good luck
