When you go separate you then need another power cord and interconnect and another shelf and more vib/iso devices, so IMHO you will NOT NECESSARILY achieve your goal
PSA M700s are very good value, but did not compare to my RIc Schultz EVS1200 (alas he is in a holding pattern making more), BUT, Emerald Physics is about to introduce their Voyager GaN amp: GaN is said to be the next evolution in class D. I am in high anticipation to compare the Voyager to my 1200
Should you go to EP check out their awesome deal on W4S integrateds: both the amp and preamp have gotten excellent reviews
Short of these, consider a significant interconnect and power cord upgrade (WireWorld series 7 or 8) and/or Core Power 1800 power conditioner and Deep Core
