I added my listening impressions of the M23 to the test report and turned it into a review and republished:
How is this over primare a35.2?

Beats it handly, from lower distortion to having a better wideband response. The Primare isn't horrible, but not technically as good.
I picked up the primare a35.2 and a35.8 to run with my perlisten speakers since I’ve seen that amp being used a lot with them. Now thinking after seeing this go with nad?

Maybe go with a purifi or hypex class d. Best current bench measurements.
Look at Buckeye, Nord or March.

That's up to you,i t's possible you don't hear a difference but if you want piece of mind, there are several manufacturers that run better speced amps

I’m happy but I know purifi/hypex class d are great choice and better options out there.

Honestly you shouldn't notice a negligible difference but if you're after the last bit of piece of mind, there are several implementations of the Purfi and NCore X modules that meet that need and many at a .much cheaper price.

Then might worth just sticking with what I have. Picked them up new for half price.

As much as I love my Parasound 2125v2, my upgrade to the NAD C298 amplifier sounds even better, C298 is the little brother to the NAD M23, Purifi Eigentakt Class D in a mixed use music 2.2/movies 7.4.4 sys
