YBA Passion vs YBA integre dt integrated????

I personally wouldn't recommend YBA and JMLAB. I have own both. I still own the YBA and got much better results with ProAc and Meadowlark. So if I were you...I would advise you try before you buy in YOUR SYSTEM and ROOM. I don't agree with the JMLAB/YBA marriage. It sounded good the first 5 minutes at the store but after that...ouch! I would go with a nice integrated TUBE amp,some neutral to warm cables and take care of those reflections in your room. Just my opinion...Good Luck

Brandon_My system consisted of JMLAB COBALT 810's,Audio Refinement Complete Amp and YBA CD3,Vandersteen 2wq,Cardas Cross Speaker Cable,Magnan VI interconnects,RGPC, various Harmonic Tech and YBA powercords.I also have extensive experieince with the Electra 915's w/YBA preamp,McCormack amp.Theta DAC,Cal Delta trans etc. My dealer that I go to carries the JMLAB/YBA line. In a nutshell. I find the YBA a little too lean(tight)on bass and detailed for the JMLAB. JMLAB's are in my opinon,thin sounding and on the bright side of neutral. That tweeter calls it's attention too much. Ask Sam Tellig if he thinks maybe the UNICO int. tube/hybrid amp would be a good match with the JMLAB Micro. He gave it a rave review from what I hear and at $1300...dirt cheap compared to the PASSION.
