I am also very interested in this comparison. At the moment I am considering both as an option and such comparison would really help me.
I was also in the same boat because of the $650 difference in price, but I know for a fact the mini is spectacular with my main headphones, and the soloist has both a restocking fee and would cost a fortune to ship back to Australia. It simply wasn't worth the gamble, so I ordered the mini.

So you think it was the GSX Mini that made all the difference? I'm getting more and more excited.
Tangentially related, I’d say “yes” a big difference. I enjoyed the Empys on the Flux FA-12S, but recently got a GS-X mk2 in and it’s an incredible match. The FA-12S is incredibly capable, but the GS-X mk2 is another level in control, balance, and dynamics. I would imagine the mini would do quite well.

A qualified statement about how good the GS-X mini is, can only be given with the wise words of the knowledgeable Toast King appearing on the On the Moon web cartoon (Weebl):

... and yes, please don't take this too serious, only heat radiation was taken into account for judging all these amps :beerchug:

Would it be safe to say that no toast was actually harmed during the creation of this animation?

Just ordered a GS-X Mini Friday. Current build times 1-2 weeks. Justin’s out (or low on?) the polished colors, as well as satin gray. Can’t wait.
