Hmmm... I was using a X250 with my Con. 5's and found the combination very forward in my smallish listening room. The 5's are very precise and the Pass seemed to exacerbate this. Additionally he X250 didn't have the headroom for the very inefficient 5's. I switched to a pair of ML 436's and have been quite pleased. I would describe the sound as "holistic" and very integrated (row 7 or so).
Associated equip: X1 pre, 360s & 37 combo.
