Pass recommendation

[hudo]

Out of pure curiosity, I got an idea of trying Pass power amp in my system, to hear that class-A smoothness and check if I'm missing something compared to my current setup.
Found X150.5 for a great price, but concerned if I will be getting "enough" of Pass signature sound. X150.5 has only 10W in class A after which is A/B, up to 150-250W at 8 ohm (Pass is very conservative at specs).
Should I be waiting for XA30.5 (full 30W A class, up to 100-150W in A/B), or X250.5 (15W A, 250-300W A/B) on second hand market?
Since I have Primaluna tube preamp with NOS tube, I have enough warmth and musicality and 150 will Ok, not sure.
They would be driving Focal 1028be. Not much concerned about peak power, because even the weakest Pass can deliver a lot of watts at peak, and I can't even listen loud in the apartment (85-90db top, per my phone measurements).
Any experience with different Pass models?

Thank you guys for the kind words. :)

There were some developments since the last visit. The Pre-amp and the DAC got some upgrades.
