Pathos Acoustics LOGOS: need your advise


I have the chance to get a new Pathos Acoustics LOGOS for a really nice price. I would like to have as much information as I can on this integrated. It will drive a pair of Sonus Faber Cremona (the source is the Meridian 508.24).

1. First of all, how does it compares to the Pathos Twin Towers? On one hand, it does not have the INPOL circuitry. On the other hand, the LOGOS has 110W and the TT only 35W. In your opinion, which one is better?
2. Dynamics: is it fast, like all the integrated Plinius?
3. Soundstage: wide and open like the Jeff Rowland Concentra II?
4. Bass: deep and strong enough or week, maybe boomy?

Again, all the information on the LOGOS is more than welcome. Thanks.

I have very briefly heard the Logos, but caveta: in an unfamiliar system. That said, I think the general character falls in between the Twin towers, which I own, and the version one of the Classic One.

Not as warm and rich as the TT's, but still seemed far from pure solid state sound. I would imagine it should mate very well with the Cremonia's, depending on room size and type and volume level of music.

The TT's have good bass extension and control for a 35 watter, and the Classic One seemed to have the same, so i'd say the Logos would keep int he family for that.

Can't say for sure on soundstaging; in my home, my room stinks, so I don't get much stage outside the speakers.

When I heard the Logos (again, very brief), it was with ZTotem floorstanders, eithe the Forest or Hawk, don't remember. Dynamics were very good, Totems can be very alive, and the Logos seemed to drive them very well.

Sorry I couldn't be more specific on the Logos itself, but I hope I've helped somewhat....

Good luck, whatever you choose.
