I'm looking to upgrade my current setup of an S.M.S.L Sanskrit II and Outlaw Audio rr2180 to a higher output setup. I'm planning on getting a S.M.S.L. SU-9n or Schiit Freya-S to use as a pre-amp and I was thinking of using either a pair of Outlaw 2220 amps or the Nord One SE NC252 for the power stage.
I have a pair of home built Anthology speakers (SEAS 22TFF tweeters, SB-ACOUSTIC SB15NRX2C30-8 mid-drivers, and Dayton Audio RS225-8 woofers). I use the system for everything from music, to movies, to streaming content. I use a HTPC of 90% for my content and a record player (Fluance RT-81) occasionally. I also have a miniDSP UMIK-1 USB microphone ordered that I'll use along with Equalizer APO for room calibration.
I'm wondering if moving to the Outlaw 2220 or Nord One SE MP NC252 is even worth it, and if so, which one I should get given the price points in Canadian dollars are similar.
