While i currently have both in hand, i thought i'd do a comparison
Source: 4g imod
I/C: cyro mini-mini
Phones: Sennheiser HD25-1, Mylarone X3 and Westone ES2
For now, all i can say is that they are for sure in the same league SQ-wise.. Different characteristics, that's for sure but probably in the end i prefer the supermicro magic.
The supermicro is much smaller than i expected even though i've owned a supermini and expected something just slightly smaller. It's approximately 1/3 the size of a tomahawk.
Honestly, I'm keeping the supermicro and selling the tomahawk only because of the size.. and the chance to be in the exclusive club of supermicro owners
More to come obviously.. Pictures and SQ comparison, but for now my advice is a 3 step one:
1. Order a supermicro using your CC so that you can cancel it without hassles if you need to
2. Buy a tomahawk/hornet/whatever other amps you fancy that are available
3. Wait months and months, and when the supermicro finally comes, decide whether you like it more than your current amp
