I am neither a technician, nor engineer, nor GEA, I'm merely...

...a musiclover who loves to throw money at his audio/video system.. And I've managed to build a spectacularly great-sounding system in only 65 years.

My recent struggles to find a great-sounding amp to drive my newish Sound Labs Majestic 745s caused me to listen more carefully than ever to find one.. The winner is Nelson Pass's class-A monoamp, the XA60.8.. Compared with Pass's class-A/B X260.8, a 260WPC-into-8 monoamp which was the first winner in this contest, the class-A amps are smoother and yet more resolving of everything in the signal.. I call that 'musicality' for short, and I'm VERY HAPPY with my class-A poweramps.
