anyone have direct experience using both of these amps (preferably with the same speakers for comparison)?? Need objective opinions.

I do not but bear in mind that the Adcom reportedly was manufactured by at least 3 suppliers. Adcom was only a marketing firm, buying units from OEM suppliers. While Bryston of course makes their own products and can supply parts and do repairs, which might be difficult with the Adcom. They also have a great warranty that is transferable while Adcom sold its consumer electronics business to Klein in 2002 according to Stereophile. These reasons would indicate to me that Bryston would be the safer choice.
