Between you and Charles - I may have to buy some Pass amps again.

Did you read Jeff's review of the XS a few issues ago? I needed a bib after that review!

A regular bib or a really really long one?

Great review this is my favorite quote

As someone who’s purchased more than a fair share of power tubes, I am relieved to know that the sound of the XA160.5’s will never change. And, you won’t have to buy new power tubes every year. Continuous operation cuts down on tube life. If only Costco sold tubes by the palette.

As someone who used nothing but tube amps prior to buying my Pass I wouldn't go back it might not be the latest version but I sure do love the way my system sounds. Plus Nelson contribution to the DIY community makes me even a bigger fan of Pass Labs.
