Item: Pass Labs X250.5 Power Amp Location: Melbourne Price: Withdrawn from sale Item Condition: Exellent - as new - 2 months old, still under warranty Reason for selling: - Downsizing and new baby Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, Direct Deposit Extra Info: This is my pride and joy. Sadly a new baby means it cannot be out in the open, and we don't have the space for a rack, nor does the wife want to buy a entertainment unit large enough to house it. Some have asked so to clear it up - I do have the original boxes and foam packing and will ship at buyers expense. I'd recommend pack and send via sensitive freight. Pictures: Below

A search of the Head-Fi subforum gave no results for "commuter". So there might be room for a thread on tips and fails relevant to daily travel, whether by bus, train, tram, or executive jet. Not hot: Beats headphones. $20 of parts for a product that costs 10 times as much. Not value for money, nor is the reproduction accurate. Also they break. A lot. Tip - find something else. Anything else. Spend more than 3 minutes on your audition. White earbud headphones. A personal dislike is white earbud headphones because they leak sound really really badly. Today on the train I listened to the radio news through an iphone. The owner of the iphone was sitting in the seat one over from me, a complete stranger with an empty seat between us, and he had his white earbuds in. I heard the broadcast due to leakage. Hot: I didn't expect noise-cancelling headphones to work. They do, at reducing or, for some sound, eliminating noise below 1000 Hz. Such as the sound of air conditioner vents. I'm happy with my Sennheisers. Koss earbuds at the $150 mark. Excellent reproduction.

Hello There, After two failed attempts to use those silly Burson Discrete op-amp modules, I figured if I wanted to get serious about a pre amp, why not reach for the stars! A single-ended Class A design by Nelson Pass The board is from "my friend" at Jim's Audio.. I have bought many items from him, the quality of his products is excellent, as is his ongoing technical and customer support!! Since this is a true mono-block design, I thought to go the extra yard and use a separate Transformer and RFI / EMI filter for each (L & R) Channel.. The volume circuit is a "stepped attenuator" type, and is NOT in the signal path! The 'volume' pot is used to set DC voltage for the stepped volume circuit.. I wanted to use a motorised pot for remote control,, but just couldnt find a motorised 50K linear type! I even destroyed 3 motorised pots trying to "retro fit" fit them with a 50k linear pot! There is room in the case should I want to re-visit the remote control volume option?? It was a lengthy build, but enjoyable for the most part Results?? Well, I havent had much time to listen, but initially I am very impressed!! This will make a good match for my Class A mono-blockamps which have sat un-used for ages.. I will report back with more listening time.. Ta CM
