Proceed AVP vs Denon AVP-A1HDCI & Krell S-1000


Hey guys. I have a Proceed AVP pro which is about 15 years old, Sunfire TGA-7200 amp, Monitor Audio Platinum Speakers, Audiolab 8000T tuner & other high end gear.
The Platinum PL-300 mains are driven in Bi-amp.
I would like to know if the Denon AVP-A1HDCI & Krell S-1000 will beat the proceed in sound quality.I know that the two are tough & newer. New features require HDMI.I don't care about extra features. I mainly care about top quality sound.
I compared the Proceed with other good brands such as Sunfire pro & Anthem. But the Proceed was more refined, detailed & tighter & more controlled bass. So I am focusing on the Denon & Krell & which one of them will make my speakers sing better.

I'd be going with the Krell, having sold all those other brands over the years, compared the processors. And the HTS 5.1, AV standard, HTS 2, HTS 7.1 ref, and then S-1000/3000 are all excellent, super refined sounding pieces. You're not going to lose in the sound department. I'm certain.
