No I’m not looking for blackmail photos of NP to get a free X1000 🙂
I wonder if anyone has any images of the insides of some of Pass Labs products? HFN is one magazine that typically prints photos of products naked (ie without their covers on), however I have yet to track down any of Pass'. I am interested how designers physically layout a product as I believe poor layout can have a great impact on overall sound quality.
I know Pass Labs puts a great deal of effort into the exterior finish of the products, and I’m sure there are many valuable lessons to be learnt by studying the insides as well.
Cheers,
Pete

Pete, scroll through the Products section of the PL web site. There are some interior views of the larger X series amps.
If you are talking about photos, I think I saw some when I was fooling around on the eBay site. One example: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1276549998
Hi Pete,
You might try the German audio magazines like "Audio", "Stereo" and "Stereoplay". They are always very keen to take apart any gear being tested. Between the three of them they tested the X0, X1, X2, X150, X600, X1000.

Pete, I have some pictures that may be of value to you. Of course, I would ask Nelson if he wouldn't mind me sharing. Thanks

Karen,
Perhaps you could place the pictures on a website, I think there are more people interested...
(You would do me a great favour too)

Photos of the Great Mr. Nelson Pass
While, I have no interest in seeing Mr. Nelson Pass in the buff, I would like the pleasure of be able to put a face to the many writings and posts that this gentleman has submitted to the public. I searched the net for a picture and came up with a blamk. I have seen pictures of many of the other great influences on the audio arena including, Rod Elliott, Mr. Linkwitz, Lynn Olson just too name a few. It would be great to be able do say the for Mr. Pass.
Mr. Pass and many others need to be commended for their willingness to post on the Internet their hard earned ideas and concepts for one and all to learn from, copy, praise, condemn, experiment with, and build and ultimately enjoy. The DIY community would not be as informed or as technically advanced without the contributions of these men and women.

If I remember correctly there is a picture of Nelson Pass
standing next to a speaker in an issue of Stereophile from the mid 1980's I think.I think he was being interviewed and speaker was called something like Hill Plasmatronics.I'm sure he said it generated argon.

Sorry, I tell a lie. It was November 1991.If only I could get my scanner working. FWIW, he looks like a young Father
Christmas, which when you think about it, is rather fitting.

Pictures of Nelson Stuff
It will be nice to see the Pictures
from Vegas.
😀 It does not matter if Nelson Pass is on the pictures
😀 And neither if he have any clothes on
It is the new Amplifier we are interested in, isn't it?
/halo - wants to see the pictures 😱

Here's some pics from Sept.1993 issue of exklusiv HIFI of Aleph 0. I picked that magazine on my bike trip to Europe. Each night, after I set my tent I was browsing through the pages and making plans how to built my amps. The schematic for A75 was published and it seemed like the best thing around. I could only dream about somehow getting schematic for Aleph 0. You guys are living in much better times.😉
This chassiss has been the inspiration for my A75 amp. It also looks like the amp has more output devices than the current schematic shows.
