Pass XA30.5 vs. X150.5

How different are these two amps? I have read the website, but was wondering on your thoughts and opinions as to the differences in performance.

The XA series combines both and it is done quite well. If you can get away with the power of the XA30.5, I strongly recommend it over the X150.5.
