Coda 16 or Pass Labs x350.8 with Magnepan 20.7

Curious with members experience with Coda16 amplifier and Magnepan 20.7.  Intrigued by its 100 watts in Class A, but lower overall power than the Pass.  The Pass Labs x350.8 work really well, bring the 20.7 to life with 350 w/8ohm and 700 w/4 ohm.  Was curious how the Coda 16 with 150w/8 ohm and 300w/4 ohm compares.  Recognizing it has 100 watts in Class A vs 16 for Pass.  My experience with Maggies love high current power, the more the better.

teajay, 

good to hear you thoughts on your experience with the 20.7.  The 350.8  with the 20.7 I felt imaged vey well, fairly detailed depending on preamp, more rock and roll amp with good top and bottom, not as romantic or dense as the 260.8, had plenty of weight and didn't run out of gas.  the coda 100 wats in class A  and max 100 amps must be something.  How would you describe the Coda 16 with the 20.7?
