Welcome fellow IL ML member. Very nice and clean Aion / PASS set up have.
 
:welcome: Sam,

Beautiful setup and room. Really dig the framed salt water tank.
 
Sam, Welcome ! Nice HT set-up you have there, now tell me...... you really don't have those great Pass amps stack atop each other in corner ??

:rocker:Thank you twich54, The wife won't let me display them proudly. I considered mounting them in from of the fish tank. Not sure if the salt would harm them. Your system is a work of art. I bet you stare at your system for hours.. I do the same thing.

Man I was thinking the same thing. What a visual shame. Also I would be worried about heat dissipation.

Thanks for the insult C.A.P. Your taste may be different than mine. Please consider peoples feelings before you put people on blast.
 
C.A.P. maybe a Vulcan. Forgive him...

Nice system. Glad you posted it. Welcome to the jungle...

Sam, I doubt that Chris was giving an insult rather constructive thought, I suspect Nelson Pass would have said the same thing ! unless my calculator is off they represent the biggest investment in your system and even though they aren't biased all the way in Class A, they still need to 'breath' !
 
Thanks for the explanation Twich, with this ammo the wife has to let me display them. No hard feelings..
 
Yeah.. those amps are SO beautiful.. that big blue meter is like an eye watching over you! Pass Labs are a great match with Logans.. Good choice and nice system you have there...

I would recommend never stacking anything on an amplifier that generates heat, especially another amp... If you can convince your wife that those bad boys need some breathing room and should be proudly displayed!!
 
Zlogan even has "logan" in his real name! Click on his link. How cool is that! Welcome.

Nice HT setup. As pointed out earlier, I would not stack the Pass amps in that fashion as it will for sure shorten the life expectancy for both and they are not cheap! Also as both amps heat up more than normal operating tempenture the performance is degraded which will effect the sound in a negitive way. Not good!

Thank you for the advice, they are now unstacked, I will post new pics soon. :music:
