Amp for Ruark Prologue II's?


system:
denon 3802 receiver
denon 2200 universal player
Ruark Prologue II's
B&W lcr60 center
boston accoustic A-40's (older model i use as surround)
brick wall surge filter

i need a recommendation for a 2 channel(?) amp to pair with Ruark Prologue II's. i have enjoyed the Ruarks for the short time that i have had them, but they sometimes seem a little too sharp/bright.

my knowledge base is a little lacking in the hi-fi area. i don't know if it's the receiver or the speakers or both. i thought i might try bypassing the receivers amp section to see if i could get some softer sounds. i don't know whether i can even add a 2 channel amp to a HT set-up. so i may need some guidance there, too.

at any rate, thanks in advance for any and all advice.
