George,
You might also ask in the planar asylum...
I have '57s and have run them with Tubes, SS and Class D- different sound - but still Quads!
The Pass 250.5 will be fine, but I doubt you will exercise the amp much,
I would however suggest that you have the voltage limiting diodes installed so that there is NO risk of arcing (Quad specifies an amp output of under 30 volts to prevent arcing (a bit over 100 watts), but with the limiting diodes, your current amp will be fine.
as to how the quads will sound on SS amps - try it!
there have been many examples of SS driving quads to wonderful results, from ML-2s thru the later Quad brand SS amps: 303 & 404
Happy Listening
