Sunfire TGA 7400 versus Krell FPB 600

I am using a Sunfire TGA 7400 in a stereo system to drive Infinity RS 9 Kappa's (using 2 channels per speaker a bi-amp configuration).

I have often wondered how my multichannel Sunfire in this configuration would compare with a high-end stereo amp and it so happens that there is a Krell FPB 600 currently available for a price that I would be able to sell the Sunfire for, so I should be able to "swop" at no cost.

The Krell retailed for $12500 versus the Sunfire's $5500, so it's in a different league, but the Sunfire is only 18 months & still covered by guarantee, where the Krell is 14 years old and only has a 6 month guarantee.

A direct comparison is unfortunately not possible.

Any advise / suggestions?

Nope, it is not the one on Audiogon. I am not based in the US.

What are your thoughts on the TGA 7400 (used as explained above) versus the FPB 600? Putting it differently, if the Sunfire was yours, what would you have done?

Ericjcabrera & Mitch4t - Thank you for your insightful responses and advise. I have decided to pursue the Krell - hopefully I'll be able to sell the Sunfire in time at the right price.
