They are powerhouses for sure. I probably should have gone for the C1100, and still may do that. I am using a Luxman C-900u, so that still needs little break in too. The combo is excellent but going all McIntosh might have been the smarter way to go, especially from a visual standpoint.
It sounds like they are everything you wanted and more. It is great the amp changed sound stage size so much. What preamp did you settle on running?
My old MC1000s the first McIntosh quad balanced design seem to crank out the heat as did the MC2500s in mono with lots of fan action. I guess I don’t run as efficient speaker as everyone else or push them more. Even my Class D Lyngdorf gets toasty running my Line Arrays. Perhaps I just have crappy speaker cables.
