The OPs answer on the planar asylum: I can't figure out what he did except hook it back up after litle success with Cary amps.....?
I finally went back and hooked up my Pass Labs 250.5 and I've had nothing but great music since. The fact that my pass amp overheated was apparently not related to the Cary amps shutdown.
The Cary amps are new because just purchased off of Agon. I wanted mono blocks to place behind the speakers, But after listening to both amps there's no way I could go back to the Cary's. The pass amp just sounds so much better in every way. This is not to discredit the Cary but to my ears there's no comparison. Not to mention that the Cary's don't appear to be a good match for the Magnepan load. I should have known
Now these go back on Audiogon and someone will get a great deal. I now would like to see if I could get a another 250.5 and use one 250.5 to drive each channel. Not sure that would work with these amps but I guess that's for another post.
Thanks for all the suggestions and help
