Product Description

The Pass Labs XP17 preamplifier uses the new-shielded low noise toroid and input filter module, like the XP-12. The power supply has an extra stage of RC filtering. We have lower radiated and mechanical noise.

The XP17 has an all-new input circuit that is symmetrical and lower in noise and distortion with greater drive capability. Noise is the most prominent part of THD+N in the first section of a phono stage. By lowering noise we get better resolution and dynamics.

Designed with a split EQ network like the XP 25 and XS Phono that is more accurate and can handle greater signal levels.

The secondary stage runs a higher bias output stage with auto bias.

The numerous loading options from the XP-15 are all still available and three gain settings to accommodate low output MC to MM cartridges.

Pass Labs

Pass Laboratories, Inc. was founded in 1991. Nelson Pass began developing a unique prototype out of his shop at home. That prototype, a single-ended Class A amplifier, became what many acclaimed as the “amplifier of the decade.” Consequently, Pass Labs is one of the most prestigious brands in the audio world. Pass Labs' mission is “to build simple amplifiers that are distortion free and sound as good as possible.”

Pass Labs has forged timeless designs for their Preamplifiers and Amplifiers. Most of them still incorporate a lot of the same components used during the original creations decades ago. Pass Labs released the X1000 in 1998 with their patented SuperSymmetric technology. Subsequently this groundbreaking design paved the way for how Pass Labs develops models to this day. In 2017, Nelson Pass was awarded the Positive Feedback’s Lifetime Achievement to commend his incredible work on amplifier technology. In short, Pass Labs continues to break boundaries for amplifier design. Thus improving all aspects on every release.
