I once bought a Marantz amp just for its warm sound, while great at first I quickly grew tired of it's slowness.
I would chose the EC just because it's a lot more expensive and I can have it at nearly the same price as the Primare. I like the look and features of the Primare better.
The maggies driven by my class d poweramps are already quite detailed and forward, a bit of warmth in the form of a lower mid boost would suit them well, "dark and rolled off highs" would not.
It's a real pitty I can't audition them to compare on my own system.
