Exposure vs Classe

Can anyone comment on similarities/differences between the Classe Cap-80 and the Exposure 2010s?

I know one is much older, and there is probably a notable difference in price. Coming from an Audiolab 8000s in which I like the detail and control, but I would like more soundstage and more "life".

Thanks!

Speakers: currently using michael green audio design rev. 60i. Considering switch to tetra 120u. Also tried a pair of totem arro which imaged brilliantly but were very bright.

Wow! Not as warm as the Audiolab!?! I know I'm a bit of a neophyte, but that suggests to me that the Exposure is positively arctic in its presentation.

So I think I'm leaning toward the Classe, especially given the cost differential (about 2x). Any thought about which of those speakers would be the best match for that?

Also, to throw another variable in, I'd consider changing direction entirely and getting a local pair of Paradigm Active 20v1, and running that from a B&K PT-3II.

Really appreciate your thoughts.
