Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |

I have a Pass Labs X 250.5 power amp. I am considering switching to the XA25. Pass claims the X 250.5 operates in class A mode for the first 20-25 or so watts. The XA 25 is an all-class A amp.
Do you think the XA 25 would give me better sound or is this just a sideways change??
Many thanks!
