As a backup I found an incredible deal on a pair of Zesto Audio Eros 300 pure class A mono's. They consume 348 watts at idle and 360 watts full out. I know the Pass Labs XA models also consume a lot of watts at idle so the comparison is likely valid.
I'm sure for my location (deep south) this simply would not work. It's hot enough in the summer, I don't need to add an oven to my room as well.

I totally agree. This said, some do it anyway …
I would like the X600.8s. But they are Class A for the first 50 watts I believe. Even that would be too hot for me …. The 260.8s are just perfect. This said, I just finished trying some EMM MTRX monos. They are 1000w with our Magico M3s and run cooler than the Pass 260s. Awesome sound!
