Knowing your speakers and budget would help quite a bit. What kind of power do you need? What kind of music do you listen to?
Levinson Reference No.33, Lamm M1.1(hybrids actually), FM Acoustics (any model), Krell FPB600--these four brands would have to be at the top of most any list. All quite expensive unfortunately, though in this hobby, not actually the MOST expensive you can buy. Funny how that works.....
Well indeed they are nice....but I would like to add the list Goldmund 28+ (I don't think you can do better under 10K) and over 10K try Jeff Rowland 12 or Goldmund 28.4+ mono pair.... Good luck
You did not indicate a price range, so I'll offer several options: Expensive amps (by my standards): 1. Ayre K-1 - very musical and smooth. Of the more expensive solid state amps I've heard, this is at the top of my personal list. 2. Moon W-5: a Canadian bargain. Medium-priced amps: 1. Bryston 7B-ST monoblocks Moderately-priced amps: 1. Bryston 4B-ST 2. Aragon 8088BB
