Amp Recommendation


Hi Folks,

I have been out of the audiophile world for a bit, and am trying to catch back up. Can I get a few power amp recommendations for the following system? I have a Vpi turntable, thiel cs2.4 speakers, and am leaning towards a lyngdorf dpa-1 pre-amp (I have heard the mcintosh version of the room perfect thing and am very interested). I want a solid state amp (destructive toddler), and the thiels call for reasonably high power. I am looking to spend around 3k used, give or take. I have thought about used bel canto 500m's due to good reviews, mcintosh mc252's as other mc stuff has sound good to me in other systems...really not sure. All ideas appreciated. Thank you.

If you have a TT, I don't think it would make sense to get a digital preamp. The whole point of analog is to get away from digital. I know you want the room correction, but if you take the time to match and setup your components properly, you shouldn't need it.
Perhaps a Lyndgorf or TacT amplifier (might be risky for follow up service)and allow the the dpa-1 to avoid having to revert to analog. Room correction might be a great move.
For $2500 you can get a pair of Gilmore Raptor monoblocks. 250w/8ohms, 500w/4ohms. These are switching amps and sound very much like a great tube amp. Love mine
