Hmmm...
Well I've heard both amplifiers. I used to own a W-5. My father owns the W-10's. I have listened to several Bryston amplifiers. IMO the Simaudio amplifiers are much more musical, better control over the woofer, and have a sweeter top end in comparison to the Bryston gear. Even Classe amplifiers have a better overall sound than the Brystons. Warmer, full bodied and smooth treble.
Brystons are known for reliability and warranty. Simaudio has an excellent warranty, with more finesse than the brute force Brystons.
Happy Listening.
