Who has heard the new Pass XA25?

+1 @cal3713 

I'd love to hear some impressions of the XA25, especially how it compares / differs sonically to an FirstWatt F7, or a good SET amp, like the 300b based Coincident Franks, which I happily run now!

I have had the XA25 and Xp12 preamp on loan driving new Dynaudio C-1 Platinums fort a couple weeks. The speakers are not broke in yet but I think the amp is awesome. These speakers would probably like a little more juice but I could easily live with the sound.  I hooked them up to my Goldener Triton Ones and they worked perfectly with them.

I plan to audition this amp in the near future and will post my findings.

Stereophile's Herb Reichert's Pass XA-25 review was published online yesterday.

Terry,  I just noticed that you also reviewed the ZOTL40 and really like it.  Both the XA25 & ZOTL40 are similarly priced, which amp do you like better?  With a 15% off the ZOTL products this is quite tempting.
