VAC 301 versus VAC 200 as monoblocks

Has anybody compared VAC Phi 301 stereo with two VAC Phi 200 as monoblocks?

I have a large room with 87 db Avalons and like to listen to full orchestral music.

It's very simple really: If you like your coffee with milk and sugar the 300 is for you. If you prefer your coffee black, go for the 200s as monoblocks ............... plain and simple
