Rogue Tempest II magnum or Cronus Magnum for VR-33

I recently picked up a pair of Von Schweilert VR33 speakers which I thought might be a bit polite for my tastes until trying a buddies Rogue Cronus Magnum which gave it awesome texture, percussive bass and the raw aliveness and dive I missed from my zu speakers.

I haven't seen a Cronus come up used in a while, but a non local buddy has offered me a Tempest 2 magnum at a good price... what do you guys think? My biggest hesitation is the active pre I the Cronus vs the passive in the tempest.

Any thoughts?

I'm currently running a 99 Magnum into a VTA modded ST70. I've been thinking about stepping over to the Tempest integrated for simplicity's sake, but this is quite a claim. Besides its hard to beat the iconic MCM look of the ST70
