Going from the Adcom GFA 555 ii to the Bryston 4b SST or SST2?


Will there be a noticeable difference in a semi-treated room (early reflections)? I'm considering upgrading. I know both are great amplifiers, but I want to know what exactly is improved other than the noise floor and power.

In my opinion, the Bryston will make you never look back at the Adcom. I have had Adcom amps for 40 years, converting most of the generations of the amp line. When I switched it was night and day. Definitely not shrill in the upper end, or sterile. The low end absolutely came alive with so much more depth and emphasis. 
 

i am currently running Bryston 7BSST Monoblocks from an Adcom preamp (which will be upgraded soon) into B&W Matrix 801s3.
