Mastersound's 845 Integrated

Warrenh, Mastersound carry two 845 Integrated. Reference and Compact. The Compact 845 just came out less than a year. I traded my PassLab 250X for the Mastersound Compact 845 and I love it. Built like a tank too. I did switch 845B tubes from the original standard 845. The 845B sounds a whole lot better.

Gemini88, could you be more specific? I'm not trying to put you on the spot with a review, but your response only tells me you liked it better than an amp I know nothing about. What is the Mastersound doing, now, that your Pass couldn't? Please tell me what you're driving and the other componenets in your rig? You can certainly email me on the side if you prefer. Out of 50 views you are the one and only so far. warren :)

Hey Warren,

I own a MasterSound Reference 845 Integrated Amp. Pure Class A..40WPC, running with 4 KR 845, 2 Mullard 12AUT, and 2 Emperex Holland 7119. She is gorgeous and dead on pace with speed, soundstage is dynamically amazing , true timbre, strong tight bass...best amp i ever owned..well except for the 845 Monoblocks..that's next on my list.

Previously i have owned... Antique Sound Lab AQ1001DT, Synthesis Nimis, and Cary SLA-70B Signature...these were ok and fun to roll tubes around with..sold all of these and got the Mastersound...best move i ever made in the audiophile department.

Hope that helps. Best of luck to you.
