3 of the top amp brands. Yet they all sound different, especially in the bass.

Boulder is all about power and the ultimate control of the speaker. D'Agostino has always designed for the hard to drive speaker. Pass seemed to get his X series amps right, but the XA has always sounded slow and mushy to me.

What is your favorite?

And ultimately, who gets the bass right?
 
Try Spectral in this style of amps.
 
Add Burmester. World Class Bass and everything else too :)
