Preamp to mate with Pass 30.5

Hello Rabbani,

Its the best to call Joule-Electra directly; they may have some demo or "B" stuff...you never know unless you ask.

Their is something to be said for synergy.

I have a PASS X250 and tried both tube and other SS preamps. then bit the bullet and ordered the PASS X2.5. It worked perfect with the amp sounds great, has a remote, adjustable gain (4 and 12db) with balanced in and outputs.

The second best pre I had with it was a B&K pro10mc used in Passive mode....

I tried a Audio Research SP16 and took it out in 2 weeks..

My opinion stick with a PASS preamp you wont be sorry

I think you have your answer. Do home demo on the best Pass, Joule, and BAT preamp you can afford. Let us know the result.

I've never tried Pass with Pass. Just haven't had that itch. But, no doubt, a wise consideration. I am certain these 3 would be quite distinct.
