Cyrus Mono X vs smart powers in mono

Anyone have experience with these amps, Iam thinking of moving into the mono x's for more authority and control and subtle details that might be lost with the smart powers, any suggestions or are these two close enough not to justify a upgrade.

Re: Cyrus Mono X vs smart powers in mono

Mono X's are much better than smart powers, some say APA7.5's or even X powers are little closer to mono X capabilites.

**Edit** Not sure but I think smartpowers compare to the 8 power.
