Pass Labs upgrade?

i am looking to hear from anyone that has/had the Pass Labs XA-60.8 amplifiers and upgraded to the Xa-100.8 amps. What was your experience like ? Was it worth the leap?
my speakers are pretty efficient @ 91 db but I am interested in the next model of Pass Labs for potential increase in overall dynamics.

We know that Pass Labs is the best SS currently. Any of you guys using these power amps on Thiel speakers?
