    I haven't heard Blackraven mention it but I can definitely tell a difference in the sound once the amp warms up, I usually turn it on ahead of time if I know I will be listening to shorten the time. It's a very similar effect tube amps have, once it warms up things seem to be more open and overall better.

    Also, I forgot to mention it to you but the Pass amp will need to be plugged into AC about 24 hours before it begins to sound the way it should. I couldn't wait myself, I knew out of the box I was going to like it but the next day the sound was improved, especially in the lower region.

    I've heard damping factor really doesn't have to be that high and it's sort of an overrated spec. The Pass bass is about right to me, it doesn't have the iron grip of Krell, but the bass is still very detailed and controlled, allowing enough plum to sound natural.

    Bill, do you use a sub with the Maggies? Just curious, I don't remember you ever talking about one but most seem to add one with 1.6's.

    Yes I do use a sub with the Maggies. I have a PSB Subsonic 5 with the low-pass set to 50 Hz, (the minimum for the sub); the Maggies run full range.

    My system is currently configured like this ...
