Hi Luke,
Sorry, I have not heard the M3 before so I cannot comment too much about it.
However a colleague own the HeadAmp GS-X MK2 which if I am not wrong has the same operating principles as the Dynalo.
I would say that the GS-X MK2 has a rather bright and cold sound signature, very detailed but for me it is hard to enjoy because it has a glare to its sound especially in the treble. I think someone here have made a comparison review between the GS-X MK2 and other top solid-state amps and he also noted this glare issue.
The Beta22 has a neutral-to-warm sound signature. It has solid state control and dynamics but at the same time has a tube-like fluidity to its sound. I think it has a sound characteristic that is not so impressive in the first listen but you come to appreciate in long term.
Another solid state amp that I like is the Luxman P-700u. This is more tube like than the Beta22.
The unit I tested is a fully-balanced build. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jeremiah
