Anyone compare any of these amps? Which one is best to drive hard, low ohm speakers who are power hungry and can produce deep tight bass, but with warmth and magical midrange? Which one is the most resolving (transparent) and can offer the best 3d imaging??

Impossible to answer without the partnering speakers. Amps by themselves do not sound like anything.

How low in impedance and sensitivity? What is the frequency response, impedance curve and phase angle look like in the speakers, among many other factors? Size, shape and composition of room, type of music preferred.

What about the front end? Preamp, source components. All are needed to understand how best to answer this question. We listen to systems, not amplifiers.
