Krell KSA200s bi-wire vs. 2 Yamaha MX1000 bi-amp


Driving Martin & Logan SL3s (love 'em) with two Yamaha MX-1000s (265wpc RMS 8 ohms, class A to ~30 watts before AB switchover). Vertical bi-amp config spec'd to deliver ~1500 watts peak total into 4 ohms.

I'm thinking of selling the Yami's and changing ($1000 to $1500 upgrade on used market) to a single Krell KSA 200s (class A to 200 wpc RMS 8 ohms) and simply bi-wiring.

Opinions on what I'll find and whether it might be worth it?

I don't agree about the Yamaha amps being wimpy. Before selling your Yamaha's, try to do an in house demo of both amps. Also, Krell's sound is too harsh to me and I have heard Krell setup with a set of ML speakers and they did not do justice to the speakers. The dealer then hooked up Mcintosh source gear and the ML speakers sounded much better. Check out other amps like Classe, Plinius, and Mcintosh before making a decision.
