I'd love to hear the XP-32 at some point, but I'm pretty sure I'm up against my space and budget limits!
On another note, I'm a fan of BAT's stuff also. For a short while I had a VK-200 amp at the same time as my 250.8. The 250.8 was better, no question. That said, it should be.
I would tell you the difference between the XP22 and XP12 was every bit as large, if not larger than the difference between the VK200 and 250.8. (other than obvious power output) Personally I find the BAT Solid state amps to be similar in character to the Pass stuff.
