Actually I own a Pass Labs XA 100.5 amp. It is quite good, but I also own a Clayton M200 amp and it is better in just about every category I can think of. The Clayton is the most true to the signal of any solid state amp I have evr heard. And it has 200 watts of glorious Class A goodness. The only other solid state amp I have heard that approaches it are the McCormack DNA-500's. The DNA-500's are a bit more liquid sounding, which isn't a bad thing, but not quite as accurate as the Clayton's. They are both significantly superior to any Krell's or Levinson's.

The above said, I would put the Clayton's and the DNA-500's firmly in Class A, with the Pass XA.5's in the upper Class B, the Levinson's in Class B, and the Krell's in lower Class B.
The best solid state amps are the Modwright DNA=500 and any of the Clayton class A amps. They are both liquid sounding without any of that typical solid state glare.
Excuse me, I meant the McCormack DNA-500 and the Clayton M200 are both better than any Krell, Levinson, or McIntosh amps.
