Bryston 28 sst's vs Spectron Musician 3 SE ?


I was wondering if anyone has compared both the newish Bryston kw monoblock amps; the 28 sst's; which received rave reviews vs the the class D Spectron Musician 3; rated at around 600 watts, for the pair of monoblocks; in the same ball park on price, $16k for the pair of Bryston; and around the same for the Spectron. I am looking to replace my MBL 8011's powering my MBL 111'es; looking for 'warmth' in the highs, and more punch in the base; with detail and openness...I feel my current amps are not quite powerful enough to fully open my low impedence speakers; at 4 ohms...
Or if people might suggest other high power ss amps to consider; I'm open to other recommendations..The new Musical Fidelity Tritans are a bit out of my range; as are the mbl 9008's...

Thanks in advance for suggestions and recommendations.

Hello,
I do own both Bryston 28B SST Squared and Spectrons MIII MKII with both Bybees and V-Caps upgrades. I operate 2 sets of speaker, Analysis Audio Amphitryons and JM Labs Novas.
Both amps are fantastic sounding on these speakers and if one can measure the sound electronicly the results will be very close to each other.
Bryston physical structure is more stiffer than Spectron.
The only great difference I can hear between these two pcs is that the Spectrons generate a more convincing life like presentation over the Brystons.
I can live with both amps but I will longer with my Spectrons.
One thing I can say for a fact about my system is that the higher power SS amps forces me to relax and play music for many more hours.
