Pass labs krell parasound amps

Hello, Looking for feedback on the best sound and reliability of these amps, how do they compare to one another. Looking to spend 5-6k on used amp from these choices: Pass Labs x250.8, Krell Duo 300xd, Parasound jc5 or Mcintosh Mc312.

I have Mark Levinson no526 preamp and Revel 228be speakers and like a very open, transparent sound with deep soundstage. 

Thanks for your response.

Piebaldpython. I don't think my rack will hold the weight of the 350.8 or it could be an option. Thanks

Thanks for the input. I think I have narrowed down between the Pass Labs x250.8 and the Simaudio Moon 870a as both have great reviews and power range I'm needing between 250-300 wpc. Although the Mcintosh is interesting.

I currently have 250 wpc and previous levinson Amp was 300. I like having the headroom and not strain the Amp like I did with a Rotel with 200wpc. To each his own but I play a little loud at times. I like to feel the music.  

250 watts is perfect for me.
