Best amp for VonSchweikert VR5?


I had my system optimized for the VR4's before I had Albert upgrade them with new VR5 components (including new drivers, crossovers, wire). Now with the new parts including soft dome tweeters I seem to have lost some immediacy,definition and detail. I think my Plinius SA 100 is part of the problem, it seems to be a little soft in comparison to my old Sumo "The Nine". My system includes VSA VR5, Plinius SA-100, Melos MA-333, Sony SCD 777ES, Audiotruth Argent biwired, Purist Elementa, JPS Superconductor+. I listen to anything from Mozart to Metallica, with a HUGE interest in the BLUES. Albert has had good luck with the digital Bel Canto amps. Spectron,Rowland,Krell,GamuT,McCormack, may also be a consideration. Thanks for any input.

Try cords from TG Audio, from your post, seems like the new TGA SLVR pc might be just the ticket. Wire guru Bob Crump makes some great cords, plus they're reasonable. You might post a query for him by name over at the Cable Forum of AudioAsylum. Bob usually responds personally to questions re:TGA pcs and is happy to help tune to your particular system.

BTW, I heard the Spectron Musician II with VR4s last spring and the sound was excellent.
