Rotel RA-1592 vs McIntosh MA252 on B&W 702 s2


I was offered a trade in on the McIntosh MA252 for 3k so they are both a comparable price. the Rotel is 200W per channel and the McIntosh is 100W per channel but I have been told the McIntosh pushes way above its weight. Which is better for my speakers since they are fairly power hungry? I am also using them for Home Theater and really want to get as much volume and deep bass as I can out of them. Thanks!

The MKll version of the Rotel RA-1592 was compared to the K1Ruby integrated from Marantz.

And, this one liked it better than the Yamaha A-S1200
