Bel Canto ref500 question


I am interested in the Bel Canto ref500 amp.  I see that the amp comes as a single stereo amp, or as monoblocks.

What are the advantages or disadvantages of one compared to the other?

Thank you!

Currently, they are only building the REF500S stereo amp. The REF500M have been discontinued for quite a while already. The more recent REF600M are quite a step up from the former REF500M. 
The REF500M monos are a step up from the REF500S stereo amp, but it has been a long time since I've compared the two that I can't fully recall the differences.
