Hall of Fame: BIGGEST BADDEST Monster Amps


There have been a lot of posts on:

"tube amps with balls"
"amps to drive my 1 ohm, inefficient speakers"
"amps for rock and roll"
"Levinson, Krell, Bryston, Pass Labs etc"
"sounds more powerful than its rating suggests"
"despite low rating, puts out huge current" etc.

But I somehow find these threads divergent and confusing and still cant seem to short list a new set of monoblocks to biamp (low end) and COMMAND my Magneplanar Tympanis, fill up a large room with EFFORTLESS dynamics and CONTROL the bass with no debates, questions, reservations or tweaky failures.

So let's please hear your thoughts:

What are the all time, hall of fame, MONSTER power amps, where there should be no doubt whatsover about HUGE amounts, of effortlessly dynamic, clean, smooth, audiophile power.

I have to think that for the low end of biamping, this should be a solid state amp, unless someone can really suggest an unusually robust and low maintenance tube amp.

Mark Levinson 20.6?
Pass X-600's?
Bryston 7 B monoblocks?
Parasound monoblocks?

Thank you.

The Karan monoblocks that pump out 1200 watts with a damping factor that is above the measureable ( 10,000)theoretical limit.No other amp can control a speaker the way it Karan !!
I'm lovin' my McCormack DNA-500. Tons of power when called for, lightning fast without being edgy, but can be incredibly delicate and detailed when the music calls for it.
The Tower superstore in Vegas used to have the full Denon(including the mono amps)set-up in a semi-private room.
what about the crown MA10000. 10.000 watts
