Which would you buy & why?

In the market for my end game,all in one(P/A-Amp/DAC/Headphone)control amp..1 manufacturer offers 2 choices that tick all my wants & needs:
Amp 1 is Class AB with 70wpc. & cost $3900.00 with everything I want..
Amp 2 is absolutely identical EXCEPT runs Pure Class A @ 25wpc.& cost $5600.00..I consider power output difference a moot point,I don't listen real loud & just never felt the need for lots of watts...
 So I am curious which amp you would choose & why if you were in my position?

There's more to it than using a low power amp and listening at low volume. The 20wpc has to be able to drive the speaker at low impedance. You may end up not hearing any bass at your low volume listening.

Need to know what the speakers are before choosing an amp.
