First Watt F3 or Red Wine Audio 30.2

Hello,
I'm looking for a new amp. Everything seems to point me in the direction of the First Watt F3 or the Red Wine Audio 30.2.
I have Devore Super Gibbon 8's in a small-medium sized room. I listen to mostly rock/metal, electronic, funk and jazz. I'm more interested in (real world) bass groove, and percussion/drums than female vocals. Above all I want all my cd's to be listenable, not just the well recorded ones.
Thanks,
Glen.

G_goodwin,
Have you read the FirstWatt reviews on 6moons.com? There is a lot of history and it makes for a very interesting read. I have Pass electronis, have great respect for Nelson Pass, and I think you would be very pleased with either the F3 or F5, though I haven't heard either. I do own an Aleph 3 and consider it a great deal on the used market.
