Help : Need amp as improvement over Adcom 5503

I am using two channels of an Adcom 5503 3 channel amp to drive my Thiel CS2.3s. I know the impedance drops down to 2.3 ohms at certain frequencies. I wonder if this amp is really doing a good job of driving these speakers? Since I'm on a tightly restricted budget, I'm wondering what two channel amp I could get in the $700 (used) price range that would be the best improvement over the Adcom.

Aragon 8002 dual mono amp will absolutely kill the adcom..
I have had adcom 5800s and the aragon is much more musical and can handle loads down to 2 ohms no problem...
The build quality alone on the aragon is much better than any adcom.. add a nice quality power cord and you have a super amp..
Good luck
