Okay, Classe CA 2200 or and Ayre V -5xe amps

......if you had a choice for my Avalon Eclipse speakers, Jeff Rowland Synergy IIi pre-amp, Esoteric P-5 and D-05 front end with Purist Audio 20th Anniversary power cords and interconnects with PAD Proteus Provectus speaker cables.....music ranges from jazz, blues...from the Allman Brothers, to Frank Zappa ...to Bach to Allison Krause ...you get the picture. Looking for a good ss amp from an established, reputible, American company....no Krell's, no Levinson's...

Classe is Canadian and is part of the B&W group (since 2001) which is England.

How about a matching Rowland product?I'm sure they have gone through tons of R&D to get their products to work together,just a thought.

TPpreaves....I did and I have. I had a Model 5 for about 14 years or so ...then I went to 501's and was not impressed with those at all....then a Model 112 - great amp, but not enough juice to move the Avalon's at 6 ohms and 86 efficiency. The bigger Rowlands are just that too big and out of my price range
