Ah yes, Edge. I evaluated the Edge G6 for a good long period a while back, before Tom Maker sold the company and split off. It was the best SS amp I had heard up to that point (and still great by today’s standards, I bet). @marqmike I’d agree it gets "somewhat close" in the fullness criterion, definitely a complete sound but a bit cooler than the likes of Pass. I’ve been itching to try the Maker G9.
Full-sounding SS amps (besides Pass)
Speaker interactions aside, what solid state amp brands/designers tend to have a fuller sound these days? Not necessarily warm or tubey per se, but fleshed out in the upper bass and harmonically complete in the midrange, as opposed to lean. E.g. an Australian ME Sound amp I have from a while back has this quality, without sounding overtly warm.
Obvious candidates: Pass, Luxman. What else?
Cost no object, feel free to throw out one-liners. Think of it as a poll. (Please don't answer tubes though, thanks. :D )
