Pass Labs XP-20

[MartinT]

I note that the XP-20 has been receiving very good reviews, especially in the area of low volume detail and dynamics in general and is in Absolute Sounds' recommended components up against some much pricier equipment. I have a great deal of respect for Nelson Pass and his circuits and have been the happy owner of first an X-2 and then more recently an X-1 preamp. Key to their success in my system is the fully balanced circuit and their ability to drive my Chord power amp very well in balanced mode.

I am interested in upgrading to the XP-20 and have asked the distributor for a loan machine. He has agreed and is sourcing me one ASAP. Has anyone heard either the XP-20 or XP-10 from the new range?
