Monarchy SE-160 or 250 vs AVA Fet Valve 400 or 600


Anyone able to compare those amps, or heard both seperatly?

se160 is a great sounding amp that will sound different then the AVA line. Monarchy will have more texture, body and warmth and the AVA will have more drive, dynamics and detail.

Depends on what you are looking for....
You have heard both amps yourself with same front-end and loudspeakers? From your words I think I will like the Monarchy over the AVA. But for taking the risk of not liking them, they are "a bit" too expensive...
Sorry as I just saw this. I heard both amps, but not at the same time and quite spread apart in time. Both make great amps...
