Spectral or Ayre (combo)

Hello,
what would you choose if the decision needs to be made from two systems between these combo's:

Spectral Audio preamp Dmc 12 + power Dma 150

Ayre Acoustics pream V-5xe + power K-5xe

Thanks for your opinion and brief comments.

Though I have no experience with Spectral, I do with Ayre. I own MX-R's, KX-R, Codex, and QB-9 Twenty's. My equipment runs as it should. When I did have an issue with the MX-R's (blown cap), Ayre fixed it for very little money and it was done very quickly. Same with my QB-9 upgrades. Bob
