Coincident Dynamo vs. Decware SE34I.4

Friends,
I recently started a thread about "The Greatest Bargain in SET Amps These Days." I am looking for a single ended amplifier to use with my Reference 3A De Capo speakers.
I think I have it pretty much narrowed down to either the Coincident Dynamo 34SE or the Decware SE34I.4. Different amps, different topologies, but very, very similar in price and specifications. I am eager to hear your thoughts about this choice. My speakers, by the way, are rated at 92 dB of efficiency. My room is fairly small, about 11' x 16' with an 8 foot ceiling.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Rebbi,
I responded to you about tube rolling on the other thread. Did you read Tim Smith's review, or the Enjoy the Music review? What don't you understand? There was tons of great information on that other thread even if it did drift from the topic as it neared the end. How far can you squeeze this turnip? You could have asked the questions you ask here, but you did not ask for any clarification about the volume control and so on...best bargain? At $1,300, my money is on the Coincident as I've stated previously. Best in your pursuit...

I own a Decware SE34I.4 which I use with a VPI Scout 1.1, Decware DNA speakers and Quicksilver phono pre. Have nothing to compare it to except visiting other audiophile homes in my area I have visited.
For the price I believe Decware to be of outstanding value.
Also there's the lifetime warranty.
Visit them in E. Peoria IL if you can, I spent 5 hours there before I made my purchase.
Contact me if you have questions.
