Downsizing: Separates>Integrated --PSAudio>Pass Labs


Moving soon to a smaller space. 

Currently have PS Audio BHK 300's and a BHK Pre Amp.

Keeping this stuff in new space will work but have begun thinking about going with an integrated amp.

Any thoughts on going from my PSAudio separates to a Pass Labs Int-250?

Thank you

Pass 250 is a very good choice. I ow one myself. If you do’t need the power the pass it 60 is also a good choice. Another amp I would consider would be the Hegal 590. I’d I did not have the pass that would be my choice. Much less money on the use market and maybe depending o your listening preferences many better then the pass.

Thank you. Good point.

My speakers are Vandersteen Treo CT

space is a med size room.

The INT-60 is pretty attractive given the price difference vs. the INT 250.

Any thoughts on driving the Vandersteens with the 60 vs 250?

I think the 60 may be sufficient in a smallish room. But I find Pass Labs very pricey compared with other brands. 

I dont have much experience with integrated but I did in house demo a little Hegel Rost. It was impressive enough that if I ever collapse I would include their products into my list of candidates.

People on here also have given positive feedback on Rogue Audio’s hybrid solutions (Tube/Hypex).

 

Also, PS audio has a integrated offering although pure class D.
