Maggie LRS amping question

I've had a pair of LRS for a few months, and been extremely happy with them. I'm currently running them off a Rotel RC-9808x preamp and a Rotel RB-9808x amp. This setup seems great, but as I don't know if I'm reaching the LRSs potential, I'm wondering if its worth it to buy a second RB-9808x and run them in mono. Would this be worth it? are we talking 1% better or 10% better? The detail is already superlative, I'm just wondering if the soundstage would benefit from the additional power.

It is one of the only speakers I can think of that I have never read anything but glowing reviews.

Don’t read the ASR test review.

 

 

I just installed a pair of LRS driven by a pair high-current 800-watt Parasound JC 1 monoblocks, and augmented with a pair of KEF KC62 subs. The sound is impressive.

The Rotel is nice gear but there is much better stuff out there, look at some 250 wpc stereo amps, after that start looking at preamps. Each step will be a nice upgrade from what you are running now.
