Going from D200 to a Dual-mono D400 would immediately show you a more "expansive soundstage", better low-level definition, better dynamic behaviour and the ability to hear more into the music. However, with your present Aria 936 with 3 x 6-1/2 bass drivers, Dual-mono will also provide a small sense of better bass control. Eventually, over sometime, the Dual-mono will soon lead you looking for better speakers to match-up to them. So be aware as it's bound to happen.
I hear ya. No doubt down the road that would be my next step. I’ve been browsing for deals on speakers if I didn’t upgrade to ci or dual mono. I Would like to stay in the focal line and my next logical step would be to listen to the Kanta’s or the sopras as I think that’s the upper limit I could go without having to have a serious conversation with the wife. 😀
If I can make this deal happen with adding a second 200, then I think that’s what I am going to do over the ci upgrade.
Thank you all for you feedback.
