If you're planning on going the HA-160 or any of its variants, it's a great amp for the HD650, but IMO terrible for the Planar Magnetics.
Can't comment on the soloist as I've never heard it.
Schiit is great bang for buck gear. It's evident that the HA-160 is in another league in terms of technicalities... but I'd almost argue that some of the cheaper Schiit gear is more musical.
I'd go with Schiit, as the Bursons currently have terrible re-sell rates on the for sale forums, and they're heavy which makes shipping not fun. The re-sell rates for the Schiit are still fairly competitive. This is all with the mindset that you'll get that audiophilia addiction where your gear is never good enough.
