If you are shopping between a 8TiHc or a Pass X600, then X600 is perhaps a better bet (although the X-series will be discontiued pretty soon as well). X600 has better transient response and a better defined mid to low bass.
At 2002 CES, Pass Labs shows a XA200 which is the pure class-A version of their current A/AB X-series. According to one of the sales person, the current X-series will be discontinued when the XA series is launched.
Okay, guys, that last person who wishes to start any rumors on the Net is me. I got a feeling that the person that I obtained this piece of information may not a Pass guy after all. Nowhere was I able to find any confirmation of the discontinuation of the X-series other than what I heard from this guy. As a proud owner of X600s, it would be sad for me to see my babies get "terminated."
