Strength:
Everything I was looking for
Weakness:
Nothing I am definitely an audio enthusiast, not an audiophile. I listen for sheer enjoyment, not necessarily to dicern every detail or nuance. I hope someday to mature into a phile but for now I'm not. Similar Products Used: Krell, Chord, Bryston, Naim |

Strength:
Everything.
Weakness:
Nothing I was not prepared for the incredible improvement the Pass X600's made on my system. The Threshold T400 is an excellent amp as are the Muse. But the Pass is in another league altogether. To begin with, there is a sense of ease and natural/organic feel to the sound that can only be described as " being there ". There is an enormous amount of detail without being at all fatiguing on the ear. A complete absense of electronic sound, the antithises of bright or hardness is very striking because many reviewers claim a unit has detail when in fact it is just bright. The Pass amps almost seem to have the performers plugged into them and playing in the same room. This is actually a stunning revelation because the recording seems to have come alive for the first time. To sum it all up: transformational, revolutionary, spiritual. This is no BS!

Strength:
Clean, open, phenominally accurate sound. Will drive any speaker - load independent.
Weakness:
Not cheap I use these incredible amps to drive my very impedence-unfriendly Sound Lab Auras. With these amps, my speakers become as dynamic as horns! The sound is so accurate and clean, on many recordings I hear instruments that I never noticed before. On The Absolute Sound's Hearts of Space CD, you hear EVERYTHING HP says you should as clear as day. Similar Products Used: Krell KSA-300S |

Strength:
True pure class A poweramp
Weakness:
It makes me cannot stop listening to my Jazz CD Collections I buy the X600 to drive my Acustik Lab Stella Elegans speakers. The result: the musicians are playing live in front of me. The amps are so natural, period. |
