The Bryston 4B is conservatively rated at 250 watts/8ohms/ch. It actually supplies over 275 watts/channel typically and will outperform a 3BST without overheating or exhibiting distortion whereas the 3B will be on the edge of clipping after 100 watts.
Unless you like living on the edge or enjoy watching clipping lights flash there really is no contest here. In the end it comes down to the power supply and the 4B has double the available current in this regard.
