The VS 700 is a different beast, esp. if you just get the C (controller) unit. Nothing quite like it since it is customized by Cake for SONAR. I'd love to see the jog-wheel/buttons on a cheaper piece, and once you use that to get to where you want to be onscreen, a single button brings up most functions.
The A&H 24 is an analoge mixer for the most part that you can "mix" out your DAW to (either using your own interface or the optional on-board one). Then use the motorized faders to, well, mix the analog tracks so the careful relationships you've set up on your software EQs/comps don't get changed, only atteunuated. And teh GYH eqs, which are pretty good, right fastbikerboy? Trés cool. Of course, you can also use those same faders to control sonar's tracks, too.
But the A&H is much more expensive - $10,000 I've heard for a pimped out one. The VS-700 C is -$2000. The VS interface is pretty good, probably as good as the A&H, but ain't the reason to get the VS 700 system. Get teh A&H w/o motorized faders and a VS700 C - that would be cool for SONAR users. Anyone want to write me a check to see?
