Ayre AX-7e vs Plinius 9200

I currently own an Ayre AX-7e which I feel is an outstanding integrated amp, however curiosity has got me. I've read and heard a lot about the Plinius 9200 also being one of the best solid state integrated amps. I have the older version Von Schweikert VR5's(91db)and the Ayre drives those fine. I also have have a pair of AAD 2001 monitors (86db) and the Ayre struggles a little driving them. I realize the Plinius at 200 watts per channel should help with the bottom end and drive, but will I give up anything? Have any of you compared the two amps? Please share your findings. Thank you.
