What amplifier do you use for your Dahlquist DQ10s

I have an Adcom GFA555 currently but am looking to upgrade to a better sounding amplifier. I've been considering Aragon 4004/8008 (Mondial not Klipsch manufactured), Counterpoint SA20 or SA220 (but have heard a lot about reliability issues with Counterpoint), but I'm looking for other ideas. I like the Rogue Audio m150/180 mono blocked but don't want to spend that much. I am using a Rogue Audio Perseus preamp that I would like to keep in my system. Any suggestions or comments are greatly appreciated.

The Adcom GFA555 is a great match with the DQ10's I have also heard the Aragon 8008 with DQ10 and they worked and sounded really good.

I owned the DQ 10's many moons ago! They need a good amount of power! There is a Conrad-Johnson MF-200 (200 watts per channel)listed on this site for $750. It would go real nice with the 10's! You can google that amp to find out more information. BTW they are great speakers!

You can try the Musical Concepts mod for your Adcom.
