Opinion on Sunfire Ultimate Receiver

Hello All,
I have a dilemma again... I have a very decent pair of SDA 1c that have been upgraded slowly. I started with spikes, then Dynamat the baskets, and pretty soon rdo-194. I am going the rdo-194, because I don't want to get too crazy on the upgrade, crossover and rdo-198 are beyond my means of ability.
As far as power goes I started with my older Adcom gfa-545ii, and they sounded great, but lacking fullness, depth... Then I got a Conrad Jonson CA-200 integrated, the sounded fuller, but something was missing on the low end, too much mids kinda, and the highs were too in your face...I then got a gfa-5500, and now my depth, and lows were very full, but once again too much mids.... all of the above have been via a gfp-450(adcom), with the exception of the Conrad Johnson CA200, which I ran on its own, and via the gfp-450. I seem to be happier with the gfa-5500.
Now my dilemma: I have an option to get a sunfire ultimate receiver at a decent price. Taking all of the above, and the polks sda-1c that I love, anyone have any experiences driving the 1c with the sunfire ultimate receiver? Will it be worth my troubles? Any other input would be appreciated. Thanks, Carlos:D
