Upgrade Carver to Tube Carver question.


I have a nice rebuilt Carver TFM 45. It's dead quite. I have Focal Kanta 3s & a PS Audio BHK preamp.  No vinyl just a Rotel CD player & streaming for now.  Aside from my mediocre sources what improvement could I expect from a Carver 275 or the 350 tube amp?  Room is 16x25 if it matters.

I've always been a Carver guy & when I saw you could buy the 350s on a 3 year same as cash I'm thinking, why not.
I am running the Carver M350 amps with my Focal Sopra 2's. Much better than the Pass Labs or Atmasphere amps prior. Very nice combination.

I don't  care what people say about Bob Carvers business practices, I have always loved  his equipment for Phase Linear, to Mt 500 amps ,to built in Sunfire subwoofer amps.

I am also curious about the Bob Carver tube amps. The prices are fair and the warranty is good as well, but looking to the distant past, I owned the Phase Linear 2000 Preamp, and it was a miserable, thin sounding piece of junk really. Pretty as it was, when I finally opened it before throwing it away, it was nearly empty! There were a couple of green printed circuit boards and a bit of wire. It could have been 90% smaller.
I do believe that things have changed.
