Are Pass Labs amps probably the best ever you can buy ?


I have about 15k to spend on an amp/preamp/integrated amp.

I mostly listen to smooth jazz like Dave Koz, Rippingtons, Brian Culbertson etc.... and loud.

I have yet to hear any amp that comes close to Pass Labs.

Your experiences pls ?

One answer. YES!!!! Get Pass Labs and don't look back. I have the X260.8 monoblocks I will never go back to tubes.
Happy Listening

Pass are superb, there is better.
for less, shop around, listen and learn. 
I went with McCormack. —-and no turning back now. 
Im hooked on Steve’s house sound. 
 Passed up a Pass mono pair for the McCormack monos’, could not be happier, your ears will tell you what you like, when the goosebumps hit......you will know. 
Enjoy the hunt. 
I’ve always liked Nelson Pass and his designs but unfortunately I’m tied to a little Dennis Had single ended tube amp driving efficient speakers...I can’t break loose...that new 25 watt Pass amp seems SO cool...but I fool myself into thinking tubes are just better sounding...maybe the SIT First Watt amp...no...I can’t do it...damn.

Take a look at the SIT3. It uses 2 complementary input JFETs to drive an autoformer for voltage gain followed by a single power JFET output actively biased by a MOSFET constant current source. A real damping factor, 200kR input impedance, and a near double of it's output into 4 ohms...it's a real amp with real triodic response curves that makes real power. 
Didn’t I just mention the SIT amp? Are you trying to make me feel sad? I've read a lot of reviews of that thing but I’m stuck!..I REALLY like my Had amp...it just sounds so good...and the tubes glow...plays plenty LOUD if need be simply since my speakers are (supposedly) 99db...Why? Why? I’ll just have to think of something else to do with four thousand dollars...*sigh*...
