What speakers are you trying to drive? The impedance plot and efficiency of your speakers will shed some light on what amps might sound correct.
I would not enjoy the sound of a modest ARV receiver driving, for example, Focal Kanta 3's. On paper it might look like it should work, but the 8 Ohm nominal and 91 db efficiency rating is not the full story on these speakers and what you need to make them sound right.
