The interesting part is the monos actually seem to be priced less than the x350.8. I don't know how that is possible.
Follow Ups:
So you are talking about buying used ???
A new pair of 260.8's cost more than a 350.8
So the x350 msrp is 650 dollars more than the x260.8 monos. Which again I find odd.
Let me double check that.
I will buy used. But I'm referring to msrp. I believe the x260.8s are actually a little less than the x350.8.
Not in Europe, the 260's are almost 1k more expensive...-...-.
Strange. Here in Sweden the X350.8 is slightly more expensive than the X260.8 monos.
Thats really strange....... makes you wonder why anyone would consider buying a 350 over 260's in Sweden??
If you look at the prices at Overture Audio (https://www.overtureav.com/shop/pass-labs)
$14.250 for the 260's vs $14.900 for the 350.
In The Netherlands the 350 cost's 19,186$
the 260's cost 19,829$
That makes more sense to me.
Wow. So I see the msrp on the x350.8 as 14,900 and the x260.8 as 14,250 on multiple sites
with marginally more power.
I'd prefer the more robust output stages and power supplies of the monos. As you'd find in greater quantities with the $85k Xs300.
I agree with this EStat. Basically I was told the 260s essentially have the power supply of the x250 in each mono. I think that plus the 34 watts in class A is a winner.
Wow, I'm always baffled by how you guy's do business over there...-...- no one here would, for one second, consider laying down 15k without, at least, a 2-3 wk home trial.
Common practice over here is that customers considering anything from footers to giant speakers have the possibility of a 2-3 wk home trial, otherwise your business is dead and buried before you're even started.
And that imho is a much better way to do business. Dealers that ship in a lot of cases get a 10 day trial. But - if you don't like - you get to ship them back. :)
