New Pass Labs X.5 series versus previous X series

Pass Labs is in the process of re-dedesigning their entire X series into the new X.5 series. As of this writing X150.5, X250.5 and possibly X350.5 are already shipping. The X600.5 are expected to start shipping early in the new year. This thread is to discuss experiences with the new amps, their sound signature, perceivable improvements over the old series, and of course dissenting opinions. Everyone's perspective is welcome--X and X.5 owners, X.5 window shoppers, Dealers, and all other audiogoners with a passion for affect by the bug of audiophilia.

I am still in the process of breaking it in. I have about 30 hours on it and each time I listen to it it gets better and better. When I get at least 50 hours on it I will post the results.

On your last post on 12-4-04 you encouraged any with the X350.5 to give their impressions/findings. So I was referring to the X350.5.

How many hours do you have on your 350.5? I would like to hear what has transpired with the X350.5 since your last post when you first received it. In other words how has the amp improved or not.
