    • Cary Audio Design SLP-50
    Nice tube pre-amp. Bare bones, with two 12AU7's biased in class "A" operation. Availability of the hi quality 12AU7 tubes, stopped me from upgading it to A, or B version.
    • Watt/Puppy DIY CLONE David/Jericho DIY
    Made to look like Watt/puppy 2/3 vesrsion, With Seas, Focal, Peerless, and many good x-over parts. Very good match with Pass Aleph 3.
    • Kimber Pbj
    Do not believe in wires!
    • Discovery 1-2-3
    This is as much i am going to spend on cables! Bought it used anyway.
    • Sansui TU-717
    Nice tuner, still runing strong!
    • Michael Green Justarack
    The name tells it all!
    • API 313
    Somebody convinced me to spend $ money on decent PC. Bought two for the amp and DAC.
    • Technics SL-1200 mkII
    Went through the analog 'stage; couple of times. But kept finding great records at the local thrift shop so decided to give it a one more try.
    • Golden Tube SE-40
    Now this it the amp that blew me away. Along with Pass Aleph 3

How does the Pass Aleph 3 sound with the Cary SLP 50? This combo sounds like it might work.
I have a AES/Cary AE3 DJH preamp (bit more modern design of SLP 50).
I just sold my Linn Klout poweramp and I am on the hunt for another poweramp. I am considering tubes, but have been intrigued with Pass 3 or 30. Can the Pass 3 be left on continually, also?
I also have homegrown speakers using 5 1/4" Seas Excel magnesium drivers in a MTM configuration...just awesome.
