Then we switched to a newer Pass-Amp. Wow! Way better. Way more open. Tighter bass than Mc, but always right and deep enough. You can hear more details. It's just that: Clean.
At home it's paired with a german Nubert NuPower A. OK, the page is in german, but the technical data can be read:

Can be compared with PowerAmps costing three times the money. Big recommendation for the budget. |
Which Mcintosh amps did you listen to?
