One of my friend selling them as package. I never have a chance to hear this model yet.

Sure I jump on it ?

What do I expect compare to my McIntosh?

Any input would appreciated.

He claims that mint condition around $ 7G.
 
Pass gear is excellent and Nelson Pass is a genius. I think you should really hear them in your system first though. Would you change your name to "BluePass"? :)

Haha....You can help on that Right ??? Well...I'm not consider them as replacement of my Mc yet.

and lives in Montreal so it's not easy to audition them....and X1 is no longer available .
 
I would talk to your dealer and your speaker manufacturer to see what they recommend gear wise. Maybe something you haven't thought of?? If I get a chance to hear your speakers this summer when I'm in TO, we could bounce around some ideas.
 
Paul,

You have invested so much thus far, and I agree with Mike you should audition before making any changes..
 
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS NOTICE THIS.

THIS IS FIRST TIME I GET THE FEED BACK SUCH AS :

"I would talk to your dealer and your speaker manufacturer to see what they recommend gear wise. "

"You have invested so much thus far, and I agree with Mike you should audition before making any changes.."

"Paul, I agree with Dewey, You need to audition new gear at home !"

"Any change now will still have you wonder what caused the differences you are hearing."

WOW...I FEEL LOVE AND CARE.

WE USUALLY GET:

" EHHH..WE ARE GOOD WITH SPEND SOME ONE ELSE'S MONEY "" WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ?" " GO FOR IT " ...etc

Thanks you guys . We are packed with nice people in here.:love:

I agree with Dewey. We only want to help. We're all Brothers from another Mother! :)
 
Hey Paul,

When auditioning The Music, I was thinking Pass electronics would compliment the speakers really nice. Pass' famous velvety midrange would add nice warmth and texture to the smooth sound of The Music. I think a good pairing in my book! But you may already get that from your McGear. Agree with others, audition if you can.

+2 Paul, you've got some world class speakers now, and a great system !! At this point you need to listen and compare any new gear against what you have,and then decide if it truly is an improvement over your existing gear !!

Lots of good advice here, but I'll go with the consensus.
