Again the topic of weight of amps

I see this has been covered but not recently.
I have had a few amps in the 100+ pound range.
I liked them enormously but I am in a small space and am tired of dealing with these behemoths when I need to move them around and the real estate they take up. They were all wonderful in their way and I would like to have kept them but for their immobility. But can one find true love after such heavy weights with a feather weight 55 pounder?
Have technological advances in 2019 made such a thing possible? I had a pass 350.8 which I loved but you can't keep a Stonehenge rock in an apartment living room.

For years i used a Krell FPB 700cx as my main amp (180 lbs), moved it from the US to Europe, and took it for day long drives 
 on 3 occasions for repairs, swore i wold never go that heavy 
again. Now my main amp is a MBL 9011 (223 lbs) hoping to add
a second at some point. The Krell is still hanging around relegate
to subwoofer duty. Big amps just sound best in my system.
Go figure !
