Need a modern Class A monoblock, preferably half or compact chassis


Anyone here know anyone that might know if something like this may be available before year end. I am currently ampless, beginning to suffer withdrawls…wishing for Pass Labs to release an XA30.8 like powered amp, split into 2/3 scale monoblocks with xs or xa or ?? designator with Balanced Input.

XA60.8 is the logical choice if nothing shows up this year, but until I pull the trigger, alien monoblocks could distract me, for instance Valvet A4.5, from getting what I truly desire.  

The current XA30.8 is the dream split into a modern Pass Labs monoblock.

FW is too focused and limiting to consider.

Anyone know of this possibility on the horizion for an XA30.88

Some options:

Sugden A21 SE Signature. Standard rack width, height about 4 in. Depth about 12 in (as with any class A, you will need air around it. Integrated.

Musical Fidelity A1 (new version) rack width, height 3 in. Integrated.

Schiit Audio Aegir 2: 30W @ 8R stereo, 100W @ 8R mono. Needs a preamp (which they also make several). Compact, 9x13x3 7/8"

Modern... class A? You can get a great pair of Monarchy 100SEs to tied you over
