Boulder 866 / Rotel Michi M8

Michi M8 big boys against the little sophisticated Boulder 866 all-in-one?
Advantages disadvantages?

I had the opportunity to bring new michi M8 monos with a warranty of $5000, but there are also quite a few good reviews about the Boulder 866...

They play in the same league?

Thanks!

I got an Esoteric N 05XD while driving, and Esoteric K 05 X as a backup. They make a perfect combo with the B&W 802d3. soaring, detailed, dynamic, powerful, airy, fast, and nowhere is it offensive but the character is very fresh, and most importantly, very natural.
