Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA

Perhaps, its like that old joke that Woody talks about in the beginning of Annie Hall:

"And it goes like this-I'm paraphrasing: Uh ...
"I would never wanna belong to any club
that would have someone like me for a
member." "

But, why does it seem that some of the original Kharma/Tenor/emm labs club members are switching over to DarTZeel amps and Von Schweikert speakers. On the other hand, it doesn't seem like there are many Tenor hybrids or Kharma speakers going up for sale ... yet

This is a great thread....but I am a bit troubled by the comments made by Tpsonic regarding the V-6 switch-a-rue and no one else commenting one way or the other. I am not taking any sides...only wondering if anyone else knows of this?

I'm also enjoying this thread albeit from a somewhat vicarious view. It seems to be Kharma vs. von Schweikert and Tenor vs. Dartzeel. The participants appear to have the wherewithall and willingness to pursue the absolute best available (or soon to be available). So, I wonder if there were any other contenders such as the Wilson Alexandria or Grande Utopia Be for example? How do the von Scweikert's stack up against these or any others?
