Pass Labs Preamps with tube amps?

I see plenty of search results for tube preamps with pass amps, but curious who’s experienced pass preamps (XP-10, 12, 20, 22) feeding low watt tube amps. Specifically SET amps, but any tube experiences would help.

I will be setting up two amps to swap between. a low watt SET amp and a solid state. My main amp listening being SET tube amp.

I have a lot of experience with Pass. They make great amps and ok preamps. This is like riding up the pacific coast highway on a bike South to North… against the wind all the way. 
 

To find a great preamp to match an amp, I would look to Audio Research, VAC, Conrad Johnson… then decide on your amp.
