Should I do this now or wait...

I am thinking of getting a Pass Labs X250 for my N802, then when I get more dough, buy a second X250 and biamp the speakers? Would this setup be close to the X600 monobloc? Or just sell the X250 and get the X600 when the time come? Thanks for any advice.

Running the X-600's single ended seems like a shame to me. What makes them so special (and expensive) is how well the parts are matched to optimize their sound. Single ended 600's is wasting your $. I don't think you'll have issues(well maybe hum), but you'll never realize the amps' potential. IMO.

The Edge 10.1 NL I replaced my X-600's with sounds much more liquid, has better bass, runs waaaaay cooler (heat was the reason I sold my Pass monos) and is optimized for single-ended operation. Maybe a better fit? FWIW.
