Pass Labs INT-60 Integrated Amplifier

As you might expect, Pass Labs’ beautifully built integrated is rated at 60 wpc, but the fun part is that the first 30 are in pure Class A. This isn’t one of those wimpy little integrated amps from the past—it weighs almost 100 pounds, and you’ll be hard-pressed to come up with a reason to buy separates instead of this. You won’t find compromises here—this is one of the best integrated amplifiers in every conceivable way.”

“The massive integrated amplifier Pass INT-60 is a solid statement in several respects. In terms of sound, it should even set standards. Does he really succeed?”

“This test was overdue. Every time I had heard the integrated amplifier Pass INT-60 (and that was quite the case quite often over the last three years) I was idiosantically touched because it sounded so good.”
Holger Biermann / lowbeats.de (german version) – 2018

“Two steps forward, but none back: The latest stage of evolution raises Nelson Pass’s “small” integrated amplifier to a fabulously high level.”

“60 watts? That doesn’t sound particularly exciting in the early days of highly powerful, compact D-amps. But a D-amp that sounds like the Pass Labs INT-60 has yet to be invented…”
Stereoplay.de (german version) – 2016

So what does the INT-60 sound like? I’m sure this is too simplistic, but it sounds like music.

“Distilling it all down, it’s an amplifier that makes me happy because it gets me more involved and closer to the musical experience.”

“The INT-60’s dominant trait was to suck me in and glue me to my seat as it continued to reproduce music with so much low-key flavor, natural color, and more-ishness that I could never play just one record and go to bed early.”

“if you want to hear beautiful music produced by an integrated amplifier that is built to last a life time and is one handsome-looking beast without constantly messing with your system, the Pass Labs INT-60 integrated amplifier is for you.”

“The INT-60, indeed, is one of the best sounding integrated preamp/amplifiers I have ever reviewed. It is tough to better the INT-60 with separates in this price range. Even if you spend a bit more, you probably will not top it. Incredible detail, width and depth in the expansive stereo image, plus quick bass response.” John Gatski
