Pass XA 160 vs. Lamm Hybrids m1.2- 2.2 amps


I am considering one of these amps to drive a pair of Eggleston Andra 2's . My system consists of a First Sound Pres Del. Mk. 2, Aesthetix Io MK. 2, Basis 2500, Graham 2.2, Koetsu cart. AA capitole mk. 2, KS Emotion cabling throughout. I'm looking for warm, lush mids ( Yes! Tube-like) to compliment the dynamics of my line and phono preamps, while driving the Andras with ample headroom, and fully fleshed out, dense images. I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who may have any experience with either or even better, both amps. Thanks

Fjn04: I'm curious how this turned out for you. What did you buy? What are your impressions? I'm an AA MkII owner with Pass X350 considering M1.2. I'm in the midst of possible speaker change. Right now I'm CLSIIZ and listen primarily to blues and small scale jazz with some clasical now and then. I'm not sure the M1.2 can drive the CLS but I'm debating going cones again. I love the Kharma sound. Thoughts?
