Most likely you'd pay much more for the two units as opposed to the one. I would not be concerned with the different sound quality between the two. Just more legends. But you do want to check the power capability of the ywo alternative methods.

Go for the 2/3 combo. 2 channel amps almost always sound better for music.

Not having heard either, I own a 3/2 combination and I think it allows better flexibility as well as potentially better sound. You get 2 separate power supplies/boxes and you can always upgrade the 2 channel amp if desired for the best musical match instead of replacing the 5 channel beast and starting over.
