Pass XA30.5 or Krell FPB-400cx?


Hello

I am in the process of upgrading my power amp and the pass xa30.5 and the fpb400cx are two of the options im interested. I realize these are two quite different amplifiers but theyre also two very good amplifiers and i have fairly sensitive speakers(watt/puppy 5.1) 93db so i think 30watts or 60watts in 4ohm as my speakers are would work quite well too, but on the other hand i do have the option of running the 400cx with CAST connection as i already have a KCT preamp.

Now this is where i would like some input, has any of you heard either or both of these amps? id appreciate any input and opinions.

I have owned the KCT/400cx CASTed combo for 7 years now and these components have provided me nothing but remarkable and musical satisfaction. They are not forward, backward or anything but balanced in every direction. Within 2 seconds of starting to listen to any piece of music, I simply forget the system and just enjoy the music.
