Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution?


I have an Ayre CD player, BADA Alpha DAC, deHavilland Mercury pre-amp, CJ MF-2500A amp and N802 - am looking to upgrade amp.
Would like to hear views on Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution.
Not married to tube or SS..
Always wonder about Stereophile recommended components such as Aesthetix Atlas, Parasound JC-1, CJ LP-125 and the likes. I would pay about $5k on Agon so there are some limitations.
Thanks.

Finally after 50 years I'm able to understand what I didn't understand and what I may not have understood without Bo.

Albert Porter, Doug Deacon, and Almarg notwithstanding everything audio begins and ends with Bo.

We are all very lucky to be in the presence of such brilliance.

And he's Dutch to boot. Long live Bo and tulips.
Bo, you need to understand that some of us have been doing this far far longer than you.

And know more.

Stop talking and start listening.
I owned 988 some years back, among dozens of other speakers.

You really don't want to compare experiences Bo.

You lose.
