AR-5s or similar -- anyone using McCormack or Acurus power amp?

In the search for more watts per channel, I'm looking at a 200 WPC Acurus power amp -- so I'm curious to know if anyone else is using one to driver their AR speakers? How about a McCormack? I actually HAVE a DNA-0.5 amp in a box in the basement, 125 WPC, but I haven't pulled it up to put in the system yet. Maybe someone else already has?

If you have another amp and your amps are all "common ground", rather than buy a new amp, why don't you try "passive bi-amping"?

See this post:

You can "passive bi-amp" your AR-5's with the stock three terminals, providing the amps are of the common ground design and 99% of the solid state amps are common ground.
