I think the amps were Pass Labs XA160.5, but there was a crowd so I stood 10 feet or so behind the sweet spot on their couch and couldn't see the gear very well. I'll check with the dealer on Monday, I do remember they were using the MCD500 as a transport

Like most things taste is subjective and when it comes to things we hear, or don't hear. The Q1 looks to be built like a brick turd house with good internal bracing but this of course does not guarantee great sound. Based on the post's here they seem to be not too impressive.

Hi Jerome,
I checked with my dealer and the Pass amps were not hooked up to the Q3 speakers during that demo session. Instead, the speakers were powered by a Krell 402E with Krell Phantom pre-amp. They also told me on the phone today that their new Krell gear is from the current product line, and it sounds a lot different than their previous Krell models... |
