It might be a good idea to invest in a dedicated 2 channel preamp that has Home Theater bypass. In my opinion the stereo preamp in most HT units are lacking the resolution and musicality that you may be looking to acheive for your system. A good used tubed pre amp unit may be the ticket along with your amp upgrade. The wattage and headroom upgrade is only as good as what is fronting it. I believe the preamp quality should supercede your amp quality. I do know the speakers you have purchased are world class.
Absolutly check into the viability of your current AC line.

I have been there and done that and couln't be any happier.
Years ago, I was a 2channel guy who very fond with the idea of one system does it all.So, I sold all my stereo stuff and started veturing into a new direction. First was all Proceed system, then Krell HEAT, Intergra Reseach RCD 7, and so on..... Each system has each own character and sound trade mark. they were all excellent in reproducing live movie experience but none ever give me the intimate relationship in 2 channel music application. At a time, I thought I got it. That was when I bought my Classe SP-60 and CAV-500. But the joy was not long untill I am sucessfully intergrated my BAT VK-31 preamp into my home theater rig. That was a missing link that I have been searching for a long time. I am very sure that this is not my last system but at least, in my own experience, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Anyway, back to the OP question. I have owned many amps and the Mcomark DNA-1 delux edition Rev A configuring in mono block was one of the most powerful amp. They powered my Thiel CS 3.6 and CS6 with control and authority. I believed the new DNA would be the same or even better.
