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 use a pair of bridged Classe DR3 VHC monos in one of my systems and feel that they still hold up very well to current amps.  I'd be inclined to stick with them if I were you - any improvement might be infinitesimal but at a far from infinitesimal cost.

I ran the Classes in my main system for awhile, driving Wilson Maxx 2s but found that I like a CJ Premier 11a just a tad better.
