Best Amp for Energy Veritas ? Help please

I have a pair of Veritas 2.4 for L/R front channel, Energy 2.0C for center and veritas 2.1 book shelf for l/r rear. The pre-amp is the TA-9000Es. The setup is for Home theater used. For listening to music, I plan to use the Parasound Halo A23. What is the Best 5.1 Multichannel Amp can I get to match the current setup? I was leaning towards the used Bryston 9B THX, the used Classe CAV 150, and the B&K Reference 200.5. What is your recommendation besides those mention above. I only have a budget of about 2.5K.

What do you think about ADCOM 7500, Parasound 1205, ATI 1506 or Aragon 2005?

Thanks

I own Veritas 2.4, center and 2.0 surrounds for rear. I really like these speakers, but the center channel is the weak link. I have them currently hooked up to a B&K 307 and they sound great, though I think you can hook them up to other comperable brands and they will sound great. I have heard them hooked up to quite a few amps, they are not very power hungry speakers. The reason I chose the B&K is because it made a smoother transition from bass to treble. Just curious,do you bi-wire your speakers. This made a world of difference for mine.

For those Veritas owners, if you, like me, feel the 2.0 center is weak, (I think the AC-300 is too), try the B&W Nautilus HTM-1 or HTM-2 centers. I use an HTM-1 now with a pair of 2.8s, and it is a GREAT match!

Thanks everyone for your inputs! I will certainly look into getting the B&W HTM1 for my center channel.
