It's unquestionably the Sherwood for several reasons..Number one,it has Ultra Linear output transformers in the EL84/7189 versions of the S-5000.
The other is,they have a full five tube preamp,two tubes for phono,three for line stage.
The other thing is,they use 7199 driver as does the Scott but the Sherwood has the best execution of all three brands of integrated.I own all of them,and I have rebuilt and upgraded countless numbers of them and it's not even a close contest between them..This is my favorite which is also the largest in size of the 7189 Sherwoods and when they are properly modded and I will tell you what to do exactly,this amp will rival some of the best separates ever made within their power rating.
