Choice: ATI 3000 or ODYSSEY STRATOS PLUS ?

Hello.
I just upgraded my speakers to Focal Chorus 836 .
I need to upgrade my amplifier.
With my budget, and I want to buy new , I am looking at ATI 3000 or Odyssey Stratos extreme.
I am looking for advice or insight on these amplifiers. The system is in a fairly big room, so the thought is I need some power.
The budget is 3500 dollars . It has to be build in America.
Comments and insights appreciated.
Thanks.

Would you buy used and have them upgraded to NEW status by klaus?   I have a minty older pair of silver face stratos, interested??

let me know please. I was going to have my stratos upgraded to kismet, but will take me longer than expected, and if you would like these amps, to ship to klaus, he will do whatever you want.  You will be happy with condition, well taken care of.

1,000. Where are you located? Price ok? Pair of nice silver monoblocks. With original manual.

stratos monoblocks. 

No orig boxes. I can have klaus ship me boxes. Or just ship the amps to klaus?

I just bought a 14 year old pair of stratos monos. Plugged em in, left on for a week or so, for the basic as they are, they are not too bad honestly, driving a pair of modded vega d-9's. For their stated power rating, I'm shocked at their power/authority. 

Im having them upgraded to kismet monos in a couple months. 

Ati ti I know either make for or made by mark levinson, and other high top shelf companies.  If I could, I would go for the ATI personally.  But odyssey gives longer warranty,

either way, you win!
