Mono blocks for Revel Salon 1’s recommendation?


I have been looking to upgrade my Krell KMA 160 mono blocks.  I have a Krell KRC -HR and an Oppo Modwright player.  I want to stay with mono blocks and thought I would stay in the late 90’s to 2010 range with something class A…but with all the new smaller amps out there etc, just wondering if I am missing something.  Thought was I needed a high watt/high current mono to get the best out of the Revel’s but not sure looking at some of the newer stuff.  Budget is 10k.  Thanks in advance.  I listen to mostly blues and rock.

Well within your stated budget, I would consider simply upgrading from Revel Salon 1 to Salon 2 and keeping your classic Krell monoblocks.

Not only do you already own a matching, outstanding pre, but you would be hard pressed to find new amps that come within a mile of your Krells without tripling or quadrupling your budget. 

My two cents, obviously.
