The ARC CA50 was suggested. Anyone have any experience with that amp?

Cary SLI80 vs CAry SEI300B
Hi
I an considering replacing my Cary SET amp. While the SEI300B is wonderful in the mid range especially for vocals and does well for chamber music, the soundstage "collapses" with larger orchestral works. The reviews of the SLI80 suggest that the amp in the triode mode approaches the sweetness of the SET amp and then my read is that the additional power will have a better impact on staging for larger works. Does my resoning make sense. OBTW, I am using ProAc 1sc speakers. Appreciate your comments and thoughts.
Thanks
