Classe 350 vs Pass Labs X600.5

Would someone compare the classe Cam 350 to the Pass Labs X600.5? I think the CAM 350 runs classe A up to 80 watts and the x600.5 is less. The classe idle watts are 215 for each mono and the Pass Labs is 515 for both? What is the sound like in the midrange and treble? Do they both control the bass the same? Which would you prefer on a difficult speaker like the Eggleston Savoy?

Let me ask this in terms of the Savoys, what if you throw in the Pass XA200.5 and the Bryston 28SST into the mix. Which would better? And why? I heard the Bryston will not generate a lot of air around strings but may have better control of the bass. Is this true?
Is there a better amp for the Savoys which are not big tube amps?

I was reading on the Pass web site and noticed on the Lit option there is a statement
Leaves Class A at pk Watts: 80 for X600.5
Where did you get 170 watts for class A?
