Amp Questions

[innovative]

I am trying to decide what to do ( if anything ) with my amp / amp's. I am looking to get more volume out of my system but not at the cost of SQ. I am running 2 sets of components up front and a set of tweeters. The first set of components are Focal 165VB's, second are Boston Rc51's, and last are a sets of Boston tweeters from some Rc520 components. The Focals are running off of an Ecplise EA3532 amp that supplies 40w RMS. Both sets of Bostons are running off of a Soundstream 305 amp that is supplies 35w RMS. I guess I am wondering if going with some bigger amps will give me more volume but without sacrificing SQ. I can get a used Soundstream Rubicon 555 that is 40w RMS for my Bostons but I am not sure if 5w will make much difference especially considering the cost. I know the Focals are rated at 70w RMS and am not sure on the Bostons. I was thinking of getting a 50-60w RMS amp to run the Focals and RC51's. ???
