Best midrange on a high current SS amplifier

What high current amplifier provides the best midrange?

To be more specific, I am looking for something to power a midrange dipole line source with 85-86 db sensitivity. I was thinking of 200-250 W/ch at 8 ohms (300-500 into 4 ohms). Frequency limits are within 300 Hz and 5000 Hz.

Well this will depend on the rest of your system, but I'd shortlist the following:

McCormack DNA-500
BAT VK 600M SE

Whats your budget?
