Vac 200 IQ vs Ayon orthosII


My amp died and now I get to upgrade.  Looking at the Vac 200IQ which is made locally in Florida vs the Ayon orthos II.  Both seem to be popular and well respected companies.  I will have a chance to audition the Vac in Sarasota, but not the Ayons.  Any thoughts?

I don't agree with statements like "no contest"  this type of hyperbole is gratuitous and really serves no meaningful benefit. 
No doubt that you'll have admirers of both amplifiers and happy owners. These are expensive products and should be heard in person in order to make a realistic assessment of their merits. I don't believe that one will "blow away" the other.  I do believe that with direct listening the opportunity exists to discern sonic characteristics that can result in an informed decision.

Excellent points all around.  Thank you all for your input.  Will travel this weekend to listen the VAC.
