Thinking about selling my Vincent 737

Hello! I'm still sort of a noob when it comes to the audiophile stuff, so be gentle!

So, ive had my Vincent sv737 for a couple years now, and make no mistake, i love the thing-- albeit without a lot of a/b reference points. But i think i might be ready to try something new. I love the soundstage and 3d depth of tube sound, but also like tight bass and detail. My question is: if i sold this guy, what would be my best bet? I have a gustard x26pro dac, a zen ifi streamer, and some klipsch rf8000 f speakers.

Was thinking a tube pre amp and a separate solid state power amp or mono blocks?

*Having the dac and streamer is a part of why im considering the sell. Im not using the built-in ones in the 737. Maybe i can get more bang for my buck?

 

Thanks!

@henry53, when I hear that an amp sounds bad on efficiant speakers than it tells me that the amp has issues at low power or your upstream gear is deficiant.

My Altecs are brutal on bad gear or recordings, my Mac MC40's reproduce whats fed to them and the highly efficiant Altecs let you hear it all.
