I am willing to swop with a smaller amp, with a min.of 200w per channel.,of +- the same value in rands, but in a higher  league , like Mark levinson or krell  even f i have to pay in some cash.

The past, the present and the future walk into a bar. It was tense.  :nutter:

I also have one of these, driving a pair of Paradigm S8's and also considered getting something better, but you would have to really spend a lot of money to get something that would out perform this amp.
Would it be worth it? I don't know.  ;)

If it was me, I would stick to the dual mono Rotel.
