Going monoblock?

I have a McIntosh MC252 that can be bridged to mono at 500 Watts. What am I going to gain in term of sound going from a single MC252 stereo to two MC252 mono? I have a pair of Sonus Faber Elipsa

There is no such thing as a power supply that will not suffer from this. Some are just better at dealing with it than others. So you think that monoblock amps with a 750 VA transformer and 80,000 uf of capacitance in each amp will perform better than a stereo amp with a 5,000 VA transformer and 260,000 uf of capacitance.
