Bryston B-60R SST vs. Arcam A38 integrated amps


I've been looking for an integrated amp (new or used) to drive my Paradigm Studio 20, v3 monitors. I previously was using a Simaudio i-1, a nice amp with plenty of power at 50 watts but was looking for something more refined sounding. It must have a headphone amp.

The 2 above do have headphone amps and more power than the Simaudio i-1. Does anyone have experience with one or both amps? Any comparisons made? I never heard either one but the reviews suggest they're worth checking out. I primarily listen to rock (melodic & harder), pop & some jazz. No classical, etc.

I liked the i-1 enough to jump up to the Simaudio i-3.3 but cannot find a used one anywhere or a review of one.

Any opinions, thoughts, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks!
