Nelson Pass and Forte

Many thanks for the replys. My guess is that the 44 is not a Pass design for the simple fact that build quality of the model 2 and the 44 are a horse of a different color. But then that was many moons ago and everyone has moved on. I can say the model 2 and the model 5 amp make a sweet combo. I think I will see if my buddy wants to sell the 2. Stay tuned.

After some more listening I decided that my 44 has more of a neutral signature than the 2. The 2 seems to lean toward the detailed side of things. Not a bad thing mind you as I like detail but the 44 does has the ability to spread things out. The mods done on my unit I'm sure help to produce this effect. As I said before the combo of the model 2 and the model 5 are sweet but with my Odyessey on the bottom I hear more depth in the music which is primarily jazz. I thank all who have responded.
