RE: Pass Labs $86.000.00

I totally agree with you about Pass amps, fantja. I have neither need nor desire for Pass Lab's XS line, but the three Nelson Pass amplifiers I use to tri-amplify my DIY horn speaker system are absolutely splendid. I use an X-150 as a bass amp and a pair of First Watt F-3 stereo amps for mids and highs.

The F-3s replaced Cary Audio 2a3 SET monoblocks. I gave up nothing in this change except tube problems. The First Watt F-3s have all the immediacy, vividness and natural timber of the 2a3 monoblocks. Pass amps are unsurpassed ion my experience.
I dream of an America where a chicken can cross the road without having it's motives questioned.
