Recommendation on power amp

I got a pair of mx-r twenties for my system to replace the jc-1.
will use for a week and let everyone know how they sound.
the krell sounded a little too aggressive for me . Made music sound loud not smooth and delicate. I preferred the ayre.
thanks everyone for all the advice and recommendations 

Another note, during the comparison I realized that the krell sounds very similar to the parasound jc-1 and I couldn’t justify the “upgrade”  
but that’s me . 

Newtoncr congrats on making a choice to suit yourself.

I think some posters, particularly some of the sales people, think they are the complete authority on what is good and what is not. Often someone points to their knowledge and experience. Let’s not get confused here, they are smelling money here on the forums and are trying to get a sale. I don’t really think they care what might work or what might sound good or what might fit within a budget...that is for the buyer to figure out! In fact I find the interference from them so tasteless and arrogant, I would not buy anything from them.

Audiotroy I guess you don't know me well enough for I could have been a customer of yours but again based on your many advertisement posts you lost this customer. Same with a local car dealer, based on their tactics I drove 100 miles and bought the same car and it was several hundred dollars more but that really wasn't the point.
I wish you luck in your business it just wouldn't be with me.

I'd also look at a pair of Bryston 28B3 monos.
