Pass Labs Aleph P owners


Greetings,
I was wondering if any aleph P preamp owners out there have upgraded to one of the newer pass preamps.Or had the priviledge of comparing the two side by side.I have been looking at the new $5500 one really hard here lately.I emailed pass on their opinion of the differences between the two and they said it was a considerable difference between the two.Since their isnt even a pass dealer in my state and pass labs isnt going to give me one. I bring my question to you guys and gals.Is there a big difference between the two other than cosmetics?And please dont be shy on the details as far as system,thoughts,impressions,etc etc
Thanks
Tim

My audio dealer sells Pass Labs equipment and tells me that upgrading the Aleph P I have to the X1 would only result in maybe a 10% improvement sonically. Ergonomically, however, the X1 has a better remote controlled volume etc. He suggests to spend my money upgrading other parts of my system at this point.
