VTV or Buckeye 8 channel amp

[Mike4700h]

Not trying to ruffle feathers....I already purchased the Buckeye NCx 500-3 and love it! I noticed that the VTV NC502MP-8 is about the same price as the Buckeye NC502MP-8. My issue is that the aesthetics of the VTV amps are much nicer and the amp cases are all the same size....making them more appealing stacked. According to Amir, there should be little to no sonic differences between products. I read where VTV initially needed to improve some of their internal workmanship....but currently, their build appear solid. How do you all feel about VTV?

My VTV Purifi Stereo amp has been working flawlessly for several years now. Initially I ordered my amp with the Hypex buffer but then upgraded it, (as I deem), with VTV I/O buffers and Sparkos SS3602 op amps.

I believe that VTV source their cases from Ghentaudio.com.

I believe the Buckeye will have much better cooling:

.....because of the verticle heatsinks on each module?
