integrated amp suggestions solid state

i have been using a sim i5.3 for over 2 years now and a friend suggested to get something with more power(current).I listen to mainly jazz and classical.I have been looking at musical fidelity higher wattage amps and wonder if thats movin down the rung.I am working with budget so going to the evloution series would hurt,My speakers are addagios, cdp i5.3, az cabling.Some suggestions would be appreciated.Looking to stay solid state...thanks

thanks for all the suggestions...awesome.I think the thought for me is that if i decided to move on from adagios and the ohm load was 4 or sometimes less that it could be handled without clipping or strain?

Its a great amp...and i have considered the 600i.just looking outside the fray a little.I actually think im going to pull the trigger on the modwright int.So many(too many) to consider.Local company and dan(modwright) is very easy going communicator.

choice is made in the modright kwi 200.Very impressed with what im hearing so far.deeper into the sound stage we go.More dynamics refined.Power on reserve.

Yeah dan is great...its nice to be able to talk to the boss!there are so many choices.Sim is still there in my(mind)and gets the highest of respect.There are trade offs with any different peice of gear.
