BAT or Pass With My Sophia 2s?


A'goners - I'm considering a system reconfiguration with an upcoming move to a new residence. For those of you with experience with BAT and or Pass gear with Wilson speakers, please comment on your experience. While I'm very familiar with BAT gear, I am curious about the synergy of a Pass/Sophia2 combo. Also, please recommend the amp and pre in each line that you think would be the best match.

Thanks!

I am using the X350 with WP8 (in secondary system) and am quite happy with it. Infact, the Pass does make for a mellow combination - while retaining the bass performance. Only experience with BAT was a pre-amp about 3-4 years ago (VK30?) and I was very UNHAPPY with the tubby sound - kind of flabby and lifeless. Since then, I have never looked at a BAT piece but my experience may have been an extreme outlier.
