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 )
Sad to see the McCormack line is no longer manufactured (I've been out of the loop a while) and SMc doesn't make an amp. :(
@dweller I didn't realize BAT made pure SS designs, I assumed they were at least hybrids. TBH I have never been a fan of BAT (tube) sound at shows, but I haven't heard their latest.
