Pass Labs....?

Hi All,

Having just experienced Krell and heard the Pass Labs X1000's a while ago I'm intregued by what this will do with my current speakers.

After I get my ARC's fixed up with new valves I think I'll hunt down the X600's. Anyone got any experience of Krell versus Pass? (not interested in the Aleph series as I believe these are very different). By the way I do love the ARC's they've a special place in my heart that I may go back to.

Any other amps you'd be looking at in the price range i.e. below £6k? I'm not going for valves for a while unless ARC Ref600's turn up really cheap!

Thanks, Tim

P.S. Am I the only one who's car is worth tonnes less than my hifi!?

 

What ARCs are you using?

 

I know a gentlemanb wanting to dispose of his 1k mono's PM if your interested
Pass labs <> nice Krell, bags of smooth natural power, an upmarket M/F, great mid mad voicing.
Just what those Digits fly on the electric meter

 

Hi All,

ARC's are V140 monoblocks... circuits are perfect but new valves are on the way. Sublime performance, best I've had in my system so far.

Hi wadia-miester,
I suspect the 1k mono's will be wildly out of my price range... thanks for the offer though, getting to the X600's will be a push!.

I believe Nick at the emporium, has some?, I had a 350X for a while, got that cheap £4k, not idea what the 600's are?
The mono's are from a good friend of mine in the US, so shipping might hurt in more ways than one

 

Shipping! Let alone the poor guy(s) who has to pick them up!

Can't see them at Emporium. really isn't sensible me asking either, I'm 100% certain they're way beyond my price range.

 

Tim,

This may be a little more reasonble X250
