    Emm xds1?

    Personally, I found them rude. Enough so I walked out and purchased elsewhere. Yeah, I'll never buy from them. Not a good experience.

    Emm xds1?

    After meeting the EMM crew at RMAF, I said Hello No. I bought an AURALiC Vega. Couldn't be happier.

    Pass Labs x250 stopped working shortly after buyer got it. What to do?

    I had the amp on and was swapping cables around and shorted them. Not a noise but instant smoke and nasty burnt smell.

    Pass Labs x250 stopped working shortly after buyer got it. What to do?

    Yes, I understand that. $2,500 is a lot of money..no doubt. However, there are always certain ways to handle things. The fact that it's not some joe blow from audiogon should have helped the situation. Either way, that's all in the past now...I'll be curious to see how it ends for both of...

    If I were you I'd get the amp to Pass and go from there. There is no need to wear out your welcome on this invaluable forum that Tom pays for out of his own pocket for us to post on. Think about that for a second. Tom spends money for random people to post about a product that share common...

    No, I was thinking for the baby...since you will probably never listen you might want to keep the dust off. LOLOL ;-)

    Pass Labs x250 stopped working shortly after buyer got it. What to do?

    I managed to do this to a tee on a brand new amp (X-250) that in my house for < 10 min. Guess what? The amp had to go back to Pass for repair. I was a big boy about it though. Pass fixed it no questions but I had to pay shipping both ways. It was my stupidity. Anyone that knows you knows...

    I'll say it again. At $20k you should really be looking at the TAD CR1 or E1. Nothing else comes close IMO. Science doesn't lie!

    Spouse approval

    I feel bad for you guys that choose to live with this. I know I certainly couldn't/wouldn't...that's not living IMO. My wife has known that this hobby was around before she was. In fact, when we dated she knew it. She supports it just like I support her crazy ass swimming pool fascination...

    Anyone familiar with Cary 805AE mono blocks and 211FE/AE mono blocks?

    Not me! It doesn't. You really should look at a pair of Hypex NC400's.

    So the search for the speakers continue.... Summits X vs others

    Yes, made by yours truly. I haven't been on this forum for years. I was bored and remembered ML's for some reason. Anyway, go have a listen to the TAD Evolution One ($30k) and CR1 ($45k). Those are what you should also include. The Evolution One will blow you away in that price range...

    GIK 244 bass traps panels

    Gordon, I highly recommend the GIK products. I use the 244 and the Elite Bass Traps. It would be a good idea to post your issues here http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?board=73.0 as Bryan Pape and Glenn Kuras of GIK both frequent that site. The fact that you are no longer an MLO it...
