Take a listen to the XP-32, it's killer and a large step up over the XP-22.
Comparisons of the Pass-Labs XP-22 with the CODA 07X ?
I presently own a Pass-Labs XP-22 and I'm pretty happy with it. I just ordered a CODA #16 amp and was wondering if any out there have done a sonic comparison between the XP-22 and the 07X. I'm seriously considering switching preamps and would like to know more about the 07X from owners.
Thanks !

@liquidsound I owned XP-22 and it is a terrific preamplifier. Replacing it with the Coda preamp will be a mistake. |
@audphile1 I do like the XP-22 for all the reasons you said, and I do believe the CODA #16 will add some speed and possibly some sparkle. I believe I'll wait till I get the #16 and get it broken in before I make a decision to change preamps. @hk_fan I believe the XP-32 would be a step up from my XP-22 however I really don't want to spend that much. |
@liquidsound that is a good plan. Coda makes excellent amplifiers. They’re articulate with great clarity but maintain natural sound. Slightly on a cooler side which your XP-22 will balance out perfectly. |
@audphile1 I have no analog sources. I have my Ethernet run through an Uptone Audio EtherREGEN device, which feeds an Innuos ZENith MK-III music server and Phoenix Re-clocker and use QoBuz as my music service. The Phoenix feeds USB to my Denafrips Terminator-Plus DAC. |
