More of just about everything: 72 output power-MOSFETs, higher input impedance, higher capacity power supply and the ability to deliver over 320 watts per channel in Class-A with greater dampening.
The 160.8's deliver power and finesse in spades. Voices take on shape and depth, piano notes arrive with full acoustic integrity and the rest of the rhythm section is delivered with both powerful attack and holographic sustain.
The effortless conveyance of musicality and realism must be heard to be believed.
Designed for audiophiles by even more demanding audiophiles, they invite listeners into the music as never before. Pass Labs uniquely molded each model's front end to the specifics of its output stage so that the amplifiers front ends vary in size, voltage, bias current, dissipation, and singel-ended vs push-pull bias distribution.
The directly coupled front ends, which house the input and voltage gains stages, maximise each model's output stage performance, while imparting to each models its own subtle and unique sonic signature.
These are Pass Laboratories ultimate expression of Power Amplifiers - the perfect blend of science and visceral emotion.
