There isn't. I have the SR6200 and now use a pair of M200's in conjunction with the remaining channels. There really is not much of a difference between good amplifiers.
The only reason I would consider upgrading to a seperate amp would be to increase the amount of usable power.
That's the biggest reason why I did it. My main speakers are 6 ohms and I'm not sure if the receiver likes that all the time. The place I bought it from said it should be fine down to 4. I had bought the receiver long before those speakers (from someplace else), so they weren't pulling a fast one.
So, my question remains, will I see any noticeable power improvements, and or better speaker response from an m200 or for that matter the 755?
Sorry, not sure. You'd be eliminating the amplifier section completely in yours. I can only do that in stereo mode. It takes too long to switch back and forth for me to really test out. How hard do you push the unit? That'll help decide. If you turn it up regularly I'd get more power.
