| Frank is gone. AVA lives on! Sad to hear the passing of Frank but glad to hear his legacy lives on | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? @decooney it was used, but I did talk to Pass Labs technical support and they were as stumped as me | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 to cornwall iv As silent as the Gryphon Diablo 300 is, you may still hear some background noise through super efficient speakers. This is from personal experience using this exact amp with a pair of Zu Audio Omen Def Supreme. No matter what I did, I always had a... | |
| What speaker has the best tweeter? There's lots of really good implementations of tweeters and I'm getting more and more convinced that the designer has more of an impact on the final sound than the tweeter itself. With that said, the most natural tweeter I've ever heard is the Vo... | |
| Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers I know even the most expensive would be WAY under your max budget, but I would HIGHLY recommend Pure Audio Project. Of all the speakers I've had or heard over the years (and those are MANY), they're most natural, engaging speakers ever. | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? The INT-25 has been returned. It was just not working correctly. I truly tried everything I could think of to make it work, but I'm sure there's something wrong with the gain stage of the amp. With efficient speakers, I shouldn't be able to say in... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? @marco1 the INT-25 is single ended, so no way to use balanced output from the DAC into the amp. Using RCA adapters negates the additional 6dB output. @helomech I heard a Ayre AX5 Twenty a few years ago and it was really nice, so that might be ... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? Volume is set as fixed for the AirLens (and in Roon) and the PS Audio DirectStream is set as fixed, high, 96 (which is max). Everything is at full blast into the amp, yet at almost full output of the INT-25 is barely above conversational level. | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? I may have discovered why this INT-25 is not working well... to get to a volume that's about conversational, I need to turn the volume up to 50 (the volume goes to 63). I borrowed a new INT-25 from my local dealer (their tech is out, otherwise he ... | |

| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? I'm pretty set on keeping my Silversmith Fidelium cables. Of all the cables I've tried over the years (and they're quite a few and almost all more expensive than the Silversmith's), these the most neutral, detailed, yet smooth cables I've tried. ... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? Looks like the consensus is try a tube integrated. :-) I was hoping that the INT-25 would bridge the gap between solid state and tubes, but I think that was hoping for too much. I'll look for a good tube integrated. I've had Audio Research in ... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? The sources are PS Audio AirLens into DirectStream Sr (modified) via i2S, PerfectWave CD transport into the same DAC via i2S. Vinyl is a Denon DP-59L with a Shelter 50- cartridge into a Andover Audio SpinStage. basically I need two inputs | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? @bjesien I don't think the source or cables are limiting anything,.. the source is PS Audio AirLens (via i2s) into a DirectStream Sr (modified). All analog cables are SilverSmith Fidelium and so are the speaker cables. I've been using this setup f... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? @bruce19 thanks for the suggestion, but FirstWatt doesn't have an integrated and the reason why I got the INT-25 was to simplify the system. I really want to stay with an integrated... |
