ARC Ref 5 vs Aesthetix Calypso Signature

Hi,
So now with both these units having enough millage on the market, has anyone had the chance to compare them face 2 face?
Is the non negligible price difference justified sonically?
Any comment is welcome.
Thanks.

Jafox, don't think a Calypso S is over 10k US. It should run at about 7-8k new and I'm surely looking onto a used unit.
The ARC Ref 5 though runs at about double the price of a Calypso S, both new and used.
