Bryston 4bst vs. Proceed HPA2

Any thoughts on these 2 amps for a system consisting of a Proceed avp-s and revel perorma f-30's. They are both excellent amps. I have A/B'd them and the Bryston seems more dynamic and pleasant to listen to but the Proceed more refined and smooth. These are being used in a system for 50/50 ht/2 channel. Any thought or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks

I would weigh in on the Bryston side as well. What I did
Dp37, was to sell my Bryston BP-25 preamp, and buy a
Granite Audio 657 (tube) cdp and run direct into my 4B-ST
Wow, what a difference. Silkly smoooooth slam.
Run your HT off a separate Receiver, you can pick up killer
HT units cheap, they only change models about every 15 days.
I'm using a 110(wpc)5.1 Yamaha system that is absolutely
awsome, remember it's mostly dialog and sound effects.
