PS Audio M700 or M1200 low frequency bass


Hi all, I have a pair of B&W 805D3 that is notorious for being hard to drive to extract those low frequency bass.  I was going with Mcintosh approach but after multiple listening sessions found Mcintosh sound too relaxed for my taste.  I like Class D's fast dynamics but my previous Class Ds (Marantz PM-10, Mcintosh MC-152) weren't able to produce low frequency with the 805 D3.  I'm currently using a Class AB Denon SX11 amp, thinking giving PS Audio a try since so many say it's got great bass.  Anyone has experience pairing it with speakers that have difficult to drive low frequency bass?  For those who bought and sold the M700/M1200, what weakness did you not like about them?  Thanks ahead.

I am using the PS Audio M700s to drive Magnepan LRS speakers which are nominal 4 ohm and 86 db sensitivity.  They aren't known for bass but the M700s are able to derive every bit of low end that those little speakers can muster.
