IMHO, these two very good amps couldn't be more different. You got to do home trials in your system before deciding. All of our systems are widely different and sound different in our home environments. I've just gone through a month of doing trials on six mfgr's best amps and it's the best thing I've ever done. My personnal results were shockingly surprising to me. You will experience some tough choices, but they will fit your system.
