Has anyone compared the Sony HAPZ1 to the Marantz NA11S1

Posted by navman on September 8, 2014 at 19:00:40:
in terms of sound quality?

I'm having a dickens of a time deciding which one I like.

It seems to me the Marantz is a little more clear, clearer vocals, more air and separation between instruments and has better texture.

The Sony seems very pleasant and musical but somehow lacking in transients and being a little more "mushy" for lack of a better term.
