On paper both the Mutec and SOtM have very good specifications, with the SOtM looking like it is fractionally the better of the two. Of course, on paper specifications can be misleading and the SOtM is a brand new product, so we will need to wait and see how well it performs in practice. The Mutec has been out for a few months now, with user reports pretty much universally very positive.
The Mutec has a high quality built in LPSU, the SOtM requires an external power supply. The Mutec has 8 outputs (6 off 75ohm 2 off 50ohm), the SOtM has 4 off 50ohm outputs, with 75ohm as an option.
The cases are a different shape, one is German, one is Korean, the prices are similar.
Not much in it I would say. It will certainly be interesting to see how the SOtM performs in practice.
