RE: Pass Alepg 30 vs NAD M22?

Mike K makes some valid points but he did'n't directly address your question about more bass slam.... and I won't be able to either but I'll offer some perspective having once owned the Aleph 3 and Aleph 30.

First of all, the Aleph 3 and Aleph 30 are a little light in the dynamics and bass slam department. Both are very smooth and enjoyable amps but I never considered them to be great especially for rock music - too polite and not enough punch.

I cannot comment on the NAD M22 but have owned several solid-state amps including Class D amps that offered better dynamics and bass punch than the Aleph 3 or 30.

P.S. As an aside, the Aleph 3 and Aleph 30 had similar specs but not quite. The Aleph 3 would double power from 8 Ohms down into 4 Ohms. The Aleph 30 would not.
