New Pass Labs 250.8 - Jan 2014

I did a little research and found out a little more refined version of the 250.5
Will be out ,the .8. It is a little different style including the meter style
It has a bit more lock on imaging ,and refinement top to bottom
Retail around $9,500 the current model is still very good.
If you have money to blow,or were looking for one new this is the one.
Will the 350.5 gets face lift ? Not sure there. Just to let others know.

To be honnest; I do not like the looks so much.

If they make a higher level, I want a more expensive looks. Not a cheaper look!! Better sound quality is nice, but good looks is also a nice bonus!!

Guess it's time to upgrade again. If indeed the technology from the XS line is trickling down for a 20% price increase and 50% performance gain, it could be a pretty good value. Time and listening will tell.

Cool, I'm glad I waited before upgrading to a Pass Labs amp. I can't wait to hear them (providing they have them on active display) at CES!
