Which mono power amp would you choose and why?


In the next month I'm looking to get some feedback on which of these 2 mono power amps to buy, the Musical Fidelity m8-700m mono block power amplifier, or the Cary SA-500.1 ES  mono block power amplifier. I'm looking to spend between 7k and 9k for the pair. They will be hooked up to my new Benchmark LA4 line amplifier.

I have a pair of Ampzilla 200 wpc monoblocks in my exercise room system. They have of course been modded by Doug Jesse of ASi Teknology and sound sublime. These occasionally show up on the used market. I have also a pair of JC1 monoblocks that have a less liquid slightly grainy sound. I also have Canary 140 wpc monoblock tube amps, modded of course, that sound very nice.

@yyzsantabarbara the Coda sounds just as powerful as other amps that I have or have had.  The 150 wpc with 100 of them in Class A leave me wanting for nothing.
