Pass X150.5 or Odyssey Stratos monos?


After months of research and mental anguish ;) I've narrowed down my search for new amplification to the two in the title. There are obvious differences like the fact that one is a stereo amp while the other are monoblocks. Anyway, if you had to, which option would you go with and why? Thanks!

Just got a Pass Labs X-150.5 for under 2500 dollars.  I have Pass Labs X-250.5 driving Audio Physic Virgos.  The amp is fed by a heavily modded Air Tight Tube preamp fed by a Asi Teknology mid-level mod to a Cambridge 841 CD player.  The sound of this system is sublime - impactful, visceral, dimensional with a tremendous soundstage.  For my reference system I opted for the x-150.5 because 150 wpc should be more than enough for my Revel F208s and does not weigh 100 pounds like the x-250.5.
