Congratulations BA on owning a 2060! That is my dream amp, though alas I can't afford or accommodate a 2060 in my small apartment But I can attest to how good it is...it sounds incredible with truckloads of power!

Joe,

I've been using the exact same amps for just over a year now with my Wilson Sashas. I enjoyed their almost tube-like sound enough that I displaced my VAC Phi 300.1 amps for them which was not an easy choice for me to make. I think you'll enjoy them immensely for a long time to come.

One thing that did provide a significant improvement was upgrading the stock power cord. It'll make the Pass sound even better. Enjoy!

Thanks. The amps really are wonderful. They do heat the room pretty good though, certainly to hot for the summer months.

Interestingly enough, I don't find that mine get all that hot. I'm sure the different speaker loads can be attributed, but I expected a fair amount of heat with a load of 4 ohms and less. Maybe I'm just not pushing mine hard enough.
