Parasound A21 or Odyssey Stratus

Switching from Rogue tube integrated because it's too lean for me. I have Monitor Audio Silver 8 and I like to play it loud sometimes. Mainly with rock/hard rock. Considering the A21 but not sure it's worth the extra $1000 over the Odyssey. Any thoughts out there? Thanks!!!!

What preamp will you be using with the amp? The reason I ask is that both amps have input impedances that are a bit on the low side, especially the Stratos at 22K. That is low enough to be a less than optimal match for some preamps, especially some that are tube-based.
