I would suggest you try to hear Steve McCormack's DNA-500. VERY strong, controlled bass, with excellent musicality and presence, and layering/soundstaging you just need to hear for yourself. Presentation is as if "you are there". Loads of power and current if you need it (500w into 8 ohms/900w into 4 ohms) coupled with a real nice musicality. Lots of glowing reviews (made me leery at first) as well - they get it mostly right.
I've heard various Krell, Rowland and Pass amps, and while they are all very good, they don't bring the same sort of smile to my face that the DNA-500 does.
Just something to consider, if you haven't already.....
