getting more power to the gradients is generally a good thing. the primare is plenty powerful and still maintains a bit of midrange sweetness. other amps i've heard that have a similar charater to the primare are the mccormick dna500 and the mcintosh mc602 (the mac was overkill, but nice). the primare has enough midrange openness to warrant it over a larger bryston, and the pairing should create some of the most articulate bass you've ever heard too.
