Anybody Try A5s With Pass XA30.8?

N. Pass designed? Threshold T-400, sensible handles and connectivity, around a hundred pounds, dangerous no fluff case work not to mention still one of the most intriguing monickers ever given to an audio product. Like a big Mopar still running bias ply's. One hell of a reference. Nice to hear your keeping it.

Enjoy, right now!

Altecs are not my cup of tea.  Not interested in speakers as an investment, I want some that will sound good with the rest of my system.

Yeah, the T-400 is good stuff, but I want them to check it at least.

I listen about 12 feet from the speakers and usually less that 80DB average.

Was hoping someone has heard the A5s with the XA30.8.

BTW,  as one might expect,  the XA30.8 doesn't sound all that different from the T-400.  It's a bit more open and the bottom end is more defined and stronger.  Much of that could be the age of T-400.  Really enjoying it nonetheless.

Y'all take care:-)

Use my A5’s with Pass 60.8 mono’s.  No problem in a 29 by 16 by 10 foot room and listening about 10 feet from speakers.  Loudest I listen is maybe 90 - 95 db peaks, usually much less.

The 30.8 at half the power should be OK at the moderate volumes specified.

Good luck!
