Vandersteen TREO CT's with Pass Labs XA60.8

Was just wondering if anyone has heard this combo together?

The TREO’s being at 86db sensitivity are a little tougher to push, but the Pass amp, being "pure Class A" is quite buff.

Also the TREO’s being 6ohm give the Pass amp a little more head room.

Just wondering. Anybody heard this combo?

I don’t think one can go wrong with Pass, I think they make one of the better audio amps.

Good to know ctsooner. 

The 30.8 is stereo, so I’m sure that is the one you were listening to. 

2psyop, I agree wholeheartedly. A truly high quality American product. Can’t find a bad thing said about them as far as sound is concerned. Weight, heat, and power consumption...yea, there is a little bitching. But that is like buying a loaded Hummer and wanting it to get 30 mpg! NOT what it is purchased for....

Guys, I know this is stupid, but if you can try the Belles amps, you may be shocked.  For my ears, I have found them to be as good as products that cost much more.  I read folks say that all the time and cringe, lol.  There are some products that punch higher than they cost, but the Belles line seems to be very special from top to bottom.  Just a thought as I know one dealer who sells a lot of them with Vandy's.  Just a though.
