Pass X350.5 Heat Output

Not having heard Pass, I'd like to know how much heat the X250.5 / X350.5 generate. I understand their Class A amps give off a lot of heat but will the X.5 be somewhat less?

I have a small room now (11x12) but will be moving to a larger room (12x22) shortly.

Thank you for your thoughts

Like Bo said the 350.5 has more speed at the bottom end and more jump factor but the XA160.5 has more mid bass detail and purity the advantage the 160.5 has over the 100.5 is more details can be heard. If I needed a sub woofer amp I would choose the 350.5 but for everything else in my system the 160.5 was superior. Good Luck Hasse

This might be the 1st downside I have found to living in Florida! Would love some XA! Too much heat me thinks.

Magnepan will play better with the X.5 series. This has to do with the demand of your speakers.
