Wadia 581iSE vs Esoteric X03SE

I have listened to them both in the same components system at the same time. Wadia gave a tight soundstage and better bass (more controlling).

However, with the total money invested for these two, Esoteric sounds a little more efficiently than Wadia.

I have compared both and the Wadia was better for me. I compared the Esoteric X-01 to the Wadia 581ise. I had them both at the sametime.
