Help needed on a solid state amp??

I have a pair of NHT classic four's and i am looking for a good solid state. I am torn between the Plinius 8200 MKII and the Krell Kav 400Xi. I have read great reviews on both. Any suggestions??

I would recommend that you also look at a McCormack DNA-1 for about $700 used. Smoother than the Plinus, IMO.
