Synthesis 27AC vs COINCIDENT DYNAMO 34SE MKIII

Ok, this is getting pretty esoteric since Synthesis are Italian made but has anyone compared these two amps? The Synthesis is 25 watts and the Coincident 8 watts but I will be driving very efficient speakers so if anyone has any thoughts on these two amps, especially if you have compared the two, I would be open to your thoughts.

I am currently running a Synthesis Essence stereo amp, 25 watts from two pairs of 6l6/5881 tubes. It's on loan from Deja Vu in fact and sounds excellent powering my AN/J's. No personal experience with Coincident or the 27AC specifically.

Sure thing I've never owned an AN amp my dealer is Deja Vu Audio and they make great custom tube amps from a mix of vintage and new parts. I ran an EL34 stereo amp they built for 15 years at 20 years of age it gave out. So I picked up an older 2a3 pushpull amp they had there but it had some issues and is currently being repaired. Hence my using the Synthesis amp they are a Synthesis dealer as well as an AN dealer.
