Pass XA30.5 vs Bat VK60


Has anyone compared the sonic differences between these 2 amps. Without stating the obvious the Bat is tubed and the Pass is SS. I have a Bat VK60 now and was thinking of switching to a Pass XA30.5. Everything I have read about the Bat says they are more SS sounding and the Pass is more tube sounding. The reason for the switch is I have a Pass XP20 preamp and Pass XP15 phonostage( XP25 phonostage is on order). Just thinking all Pass might give me best synergy. My speakers are Reference 3A Episode's( 90db, 6 ohms) very neutral and revealing. Any input would be great.
