Thanks Almarg, I think the XP-15 has an output impedance of 300 OHMS the 25 is 150 and as you said the Rhea only 110. Thinking with the combo of a low output cart and a solid state pre, the Pass may be the best choice.
Initially I was all Rhea, but thinking technically rather than emotionally (mmmm tubes) now I leaning towards the Pass. These two new Pass units are also using some,pretty damn nice output devices. Think they are what are making the 15 sound so much better than the older xono.
