I recently demoed the Pass Labs X250.8 stereo amp from a small local Pass dealer here in Southern CA: Katli Audio in Chino Hills.
My wife and I loved it and are now setting up a trial period with the X600.8 monos. Fred from Katli is knowledgeable and a straight shooter. He does not have a wide spectrum of Pass gear, being a smaller outfit, but he has a Class A and Class AB stereo and monos to give you an idea if you wish to proceed up the Pass Labs food chain.
There is also Reno HiFi that sells exclusively Pass Labs that also allows in-home demos, but you have to also outright pay for the equipment and you also have 30 days to return it. Reno HiFi is not taking anymore new customers until Thanksgiving, however.
