  It might be expensive or it might be relatively inexpensive. We'll just have to wait and see won't we?

    It's been several years since I've heard any Pass Labs equipment,but I can remember that the 'Aleph' amp that I'd heard reminded me of SET sound w/o
    having to "fool around" picking the 'NOS'tubes to use w/ it. Very lush but
    detailed sounding !
    
    (This would be a nice addition to the $1k price range if there were a possibility to bring it in at that; This will be a niche market for Pass so
    maybe us "poor folk" will catch a break)

      Looking at Pass' price list, I predict a minimum of 2K for a headphone amp (no DAC).
      
      Will the folks that believe in 'straight wire with gain' like it if it's lush?
      
      One day we will all be enlightened.
