Amp upgrade from Ayre V-5xe


I am loving the Ayre sound (V-5xe Amp, QX-5 Twenty DAC / streamer). My speakers are the new Revel F228be

While I think V-5xe is great, I am thinking of upgrading to the newer VX-5 Twenty. Just because.... I hear my sirens calling :-)


For you Ayre owners, is this a worthy upgrade?

Or should I consider another solid state Amp? Pass Labs come to mind

Thanks!

You think the amp in your system  sounds great, so in a strange twist of logic you seek to divest yourself of that amp.
Yes @pesky_wabbit... the quest for the holy grail. You are lucky you don’t suffer from this disease 
I love Ayre, far far more than Pass. If you think the two of them are close, by all means get the cheaper one. 

Best,
