McIntosh MC501 vs Wyred SX1000

I am wondering if anyone has compared the Mcintosh amps directly to the W4S units. I am reading some reviews that the W4S amps are remarkably smooth. I know that the 501 pretty much stomped the NuForce unit. The Wyred is supposed to have modifications that set it apart from the NuForce. I Would love to hear some opinions before I make my move................

I have heard many say the 501 is the best sounding Mac there is. If the Wyred cant compete with a 4420 it isnt touching a 501. I respect B&K but Im with you. Mac is in a different realm.

I think a BelCanto demo is a great idea.

Thanx and regards.
