Been running my Sony SS-M9ED with pass labs amps for the longest time.
These speakers were originally voiced with aleph 1.2 monoblocks.
I have much more humble aspiration.
Audio-only System:
Digital - EMM Lab TSDX / DAC2X
Pre-amp - Pass Lab XP20
Power-amp - Pass Lab X350
Speakers - Sony SS-M9ED
Interconnect - Straightwire Crescendo XLR
Speaker cables - Straightwire Crescendo double runs
Power Cords - Factory supplied Hirakawa (from Sony) straight into wall mains
My grouse? I wish equipment makers would do sonically better with lesser number of chassis....

I love shark fin soup.....!
I have a Pass Labs XVR1 three way active crossover that I am using to tri-amplify the IRS Series V.
Each driver column has its own set of amplifiers. The system has six channels of amplifiers.
NO passive crossovers in the system.
