They're both amazing, but different flavors. I don't think I could say one was better than the other, its going to be which "flavor" you prefer.
You can't go wrong with either. DarTZeel is one of the three best SS products I've ever heard, along with Technical Brain and TAD, but that's just me and YMMV.
If you can arrange an in-home audition (and, at those prices, you should be able to), that will be the best way to inform your decision.
