From what I heard with my Rx and Shadow (the Shadow is on demo over The Pond right now), I think the Rx has a slight bit more 'grandeur' to its sound. The bass reaches slightly lower, and there's a little more separation and air. But the Shadow has this sort of intimate, 'tactile purity' as I like to put it. A certain warmth. They are both very very good, and it's most certainly splitting hairs between them.
The Shadow has its incredible battery life as a huge plus, and the Rx will drive bigger cans. Those two factors may come into play depending on what people want in a portable amp.
