XA60.8's. Do my listening at night, helps keep the room comfortable. Turn them off unless I forget.
Had to put a cage over them as my cat liked to sleep on them.
Pass Labs Amps - Does the heat bother you?
I am very intrigued by pass amplifiers (NOT the intergateds). I have heard many good things about them. However, I also have heard from many people that they get really hot. I am interested in the stereo amps.... like the X350.
Curious, if you own one or used to own one... how do/did you deal with the heat? I wouldn’t want it heating up my living room where the AC runs more (which kills my music enjoyment session).
Also, I usually leave my amp on from 5:00 pm till I go to bed (anywhere from 9:00 pm to 12 am). Not sure how that would come into play if a pass labs would be a good fit for me.

@dman777 what are you going to do? Based on all the responses from experienced members, you have more than enough anecdotal information to make a decision. Let me know if you list your 861. I might be interested. |
@audiopacer Ok. It will be a a few months before I decide (if I decide). I really like the 861 :) It's a very unique sound to have it so warm but so resolving. |

Congratulations on being able to have discretionary funds to make the purchase. Since this question will have many responses - I will be brief: Please add Convergent Audio Technology to your list. If you can somehow make it to an audio show where they showcase their equipment - you can get a great feel for the sonics of their product. |
