Over the years, I've learned that we all have different tastes...
A Korean collector visited me last year... and he picked the Borges OM45 Dlx to be the best guitar in my house... at that time I had multiple Somogyis (5 at that time I think), Traugotts, Walkers, Kostals, Matsuda, Brondel, etc...
He says it sounds close to his pre war Martin OM.

At this time it will be very hard for me to pick the best among the 4 world class OMs...
But if you force me... its gotta be either the Merrill or the Dudenbostel.
They are very different, but both stellar...
The Circa being a 2mos old guitar is already great... after a few months my answer may change hahaha.
