Odyssey Khartago ES or PS Audio Stellar S300?

I wonder if anybody listen side by side to Odyssey Khartago ES and PS Audio Stellar S300. They are close pricewise and both have good reviews. I’m looking for what we’re all looking for – transparency, details, controlled bass, separation of instruments, musicality… I use Mac C22 as preamp and Focal Electras BE 1028. Your expertise will be very much appreciated.

I am biased as I owned a Odyssey Stratos for many years.  I would pick the Khartago since it is class A A/B as opposed to Class D I believe of the PS Audio.

I replaced a PS Audio Stellar 300 with a AVA SET 120 - improvement or equal in all ways apart from total power.  Even bass control was the same.  You might want to put it on your list.

I had the Karthagos and then Kismets. I remember liking the Karthagos better. Every show Klaus ranks in the best room lists. The prices are fair, but the wait time is not as he is usually backlogged for a reason. Easy choice.
