Backert Rhumba 1.3 OR Modwright LS 100 ?

@twoleftears Thanks so much for that link — looks like a very valuable treasure trove of great info rooted in experience, which is the best kind of info.  I’ve bookmarked it and look forward to thoroughly reading through it and learning a ton.  

I was lucky enough to borrow a friend's rhumba extreme 1.3 for a week. Like the rhythm, it is a dual mono design. I tried it with schiit aegirs as monoblocks and the combo bested my pass integrated in dynamics and detail. 

Anyone compare the Backert to a Manley Jumbo Shrimp?

They are in the same price range.
