Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps


I'm currently running a pair of Classe Delta Mono"s to drive my Wilson Alexx V's.  IMO they sound wonderful with plenty of power.  I've been considering upgrading these amps to the next price/quality level.  My biggest concern is whether I'll get the level of improvement in SQ that will move the needle.  I'd love to hear from folks who have made this move in their systems or heard comparisons at shows or dealers.

I’ve had many Classe pieces in the past: ca-200, 3 of their preamps last 1 being the cp-60, and the last amps being the ca-m600 monos. I didn’t like the newer Classe products and I didn’t like the thinking of Classe was going to be in business tomorrow. So I went looking for new amps a few years ago and went with the ps audio amps, better performance, and I know they will be supported next year and probably for the next decade. The m600’s didn’t sound bad, they were warm sounding like all the Classe amps before them, but I didn’t like all the fan circuitry that could go south. I would buy another ca-200 or even a cam-350 pair for my 2nd system.
