Great comparison Wharfrat and very interesting comments on amps. Never would have expected an old receiver to perform so well.
In a very brief comparison I preferred the the Thunderpants, but I need to spend a lot more time at the next Head-Fi meet, and with a number of different amps.
Ultimately it may come down to whether you prefer an open or closed can. For me closed is the only option. Many people prefer open of course.
Bottom line, see if you can attend a Head-Fi meet, a lot will depend on your personal preferences and what amplification seems reasonable to you. Both are great sounding units and I doubt if either will disappoint.
