You should try both. I bet that the XP 10 will work better with your amp. That being said synergy between components can be a big thing.
Pass Labs XP10 or Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE
This thread is intended for those who have experience with both preamps, primarily. But feedback from those who have one or the other is welcomed.
I really like the idea of a no-gain preamp. I normally wouldn't consider something like the W4S for my set-up, except that what it lacks in appearance (external), it seems to actually possess(internal). I have a Pass Labs X250.5 which has 26/30 dB of gain on it's own. While I would love to have an aesthetically matching/pleasing system (all Pass), the sound still has to determine my purchase. The W4S could also potentially save me some coin in the process.
I am currently unable to hear either preamp so I am trying to get impressions from current owners of either, or both, product(s).
