| Decisions, decisions - Aggie vs Ampeg

Narrowed my search down to these two now.
First impressions - the DB751 is really quiet, you hardly know it's on. The SVT VR is noisier, but not bad at all, though on this one there is a bit of a high-pitched hum, not sure what it is.
Ampeg is quite a bit bigger, bulkier and heavier. I find the DB751 really easy to manage, but the SVT is definitely a handful.
Only played through them a tiny bit so far but immediately the SVT sounds "nicer" to me, it's kind of softer-sounding, less harsh and sharp - plenty of fiddling to do yet though.
It's nice having the 2 inputs on the SVT - I have a P Bass and a Spector, and they don't like being plugged into an amp with the same settings - what works for one doesn't work for the other. Obviously I could get a 2 channel thing like the EBS Microbass II, but with the SVT you can just set up 1 channel for the Spector and the other for the P.
Would prefer if the SVT had 2 speakons at the back, also an 8 ohm option might be nice, maybe.
Probably gonna go for a Bergantino NV610 or 412 (leaning towards the 412 actually - both maybe??!!). I think I'll then hold the record for the rig that's so much beyond the ability of the player!
Further thoughts as they occur.
