Best amps to pair with dynaudio C2

Looking for mono blocks to pair with dyn c2s. Budget 5 to 6k max. Cables = analysis plus big silver oval. My thoughts so far:

Parasound jc1s - used
Odyssey stratos "loaded" new;
Bryston 7b sst2 - used

Would very much appreciate any thoughts on these or other suggestions. I listen mainly to rock, jazz. Love the clarity,, "full information" the dyns provide. The warm, tubey sound puts me to sleep. I like a very tight grip on the base, totally silent ink black background and pure mids and highs that make you grin widely.

To be honest I dont like your short list at all.Why limit yourself to monos??As a Confidence owner I would suggest a Pass X250.5 or Mac 402.

And I would really suggest Simaudio. I am using the Titan multi-channel but when I am ready to add a two channel it will still be Simaudio.

Good-Luck

Very strange post.The C2s are known to be lacking in bass(the weak link in the Confidence lineup) and not a speaker for "rock"to start with."The warm, tubey sound"Are we talking about Dynaudio?,lol.Where does that come from,Ive never heard anyone refer to Dynaudio as that.Silver cable is not recommended with the C lineup either.
Mow for your amp selection with those speakers..JC1s/NEVER,too many problems.Bryston/possibly but then again ,PASS on that one.Know nothing about the third.Man ,this is a strange inital post indeed.
Get a good quality SS high power amp, a sub which you will need..........and start looking for the right speaker cables
