Bryston verses Pass Labs


Has anyone compared the Bryston 28BSST to the comparable amp from Pass Labs??

I have a lot of experience with Bryston and now own the 28B-SSTs (very impressive amps) but, from my experiences, these mono blocks are a progressive and satisfying leap forward for Bryston. I had the 3BST a long while ago, lived with the 4BSSTs for some time too and while they are fine amps in their own right, the 28's are much more refined and comparable to the best amps I have owned or have spend a lot of quality time with...Pass Labs NOT being on of those amps...

If you have some comments to make about the 28's compared to the best Pass has to offer, I would very much appreciate it.

I, too, would like to know more about the new 28's from Bryston. A few years back, I swapped out a pair of Pass X-600's for a pair of 7B-SST amps to drive my B&W 800's. I was amazed how much better performance I attained with these amps, which were by the way about half the cost of the Pass Labs. From what I gather, the 28's are really awesome. Plus, the 20 year warranty sounds pretty good, too.
