I have a totally different set up but I was using a Rotel from 1990 or 1992, so similiar vintage. In 2003 I upgraded to the Marantz SA-14 because I wanted SACD after hearing the difference on a Diana Krall set done in both formants. It was literally like getting a new collection to listen to. 10 to 15 years marks a big leap. I would encourage you to audition some and do some A?B testing and decide for yourself. Just some thoughts Michael
