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!

@carlco that Aesthetix Atlas looks good, but I worry about resale value if I don’t like it, since the brand is fairly obscure.

I can get a brand new BHK 250 for about $1,000 cheaper than Ayre VX-5 Twenty used. I think I am going to go for it. I will not lose much if I don’t like it and then sell it
as good as Ayre 20  is, you will get a bigger difference by upgrading the speakers
I am very happy with my speakers @fstein . I love them. And have owned and listened many speakers.

Besides, how do you know ? Have you heard the F228Be speakers? They just came out and very few people own them. I was on the preorder list, and was one of the few to get it first. Even from dealers. 
It seems you are getting some pretty good advice above

The best systems are created with Logic and facts most will agree.
 The worst decisions are made blind without genuine facts lack of listening  no preparation hoping your challenges work out
 It seems you are emotionally attached to your speakers
((((and was one of the few to get it first. Even from dealers.))))
Could this have made you feel special? another emotion

  Is it a reality or fantasy, either way, if it makes you feel special being told folks are banging for these speakers great
Yet somehow you still are searching.
When truly in love with the music you won't need affirmation.
Are you about to blow it again?
Taking the cheap way out?
Are you listening with your eyes or seeing with your ears?

Could it be you like taking the easy way out reading what the popular deal buyer, feeble-minded, committee does instead of focusing on your almost excellent particular scenario?.  

(((I think I am going to go for it.
 I will not lose much if I don’t like it and then sell it )))
  
   Does this sound like the real solution or running in circles?
 
  If i were you I would Ayre match it all together first and see if it lets the whole system work for you instead of you working for the system.

You may be totally right on Ayre JohnnyR, but for the speakers, have you heard them?
