Best amps for rock and heavy metal



I listen rock and metal more than 90% from Deep purple to metallica and pantera
Some dealers told me about mcintosh, krell and Levinson....
Anyone in this forum has experience with Accuphase A60 and P7000?

What's the best amps in your opinion.

If we are talking power and value for money, the Parasound JC-1s were measured by Stereophile as clipping at 545 watts. You'd be very hard pressed to beat this figure in a high quality amplifier.

How small?

Do you have a SPL meter (like a cheap RadioShack model) to get an idea of what levels you are listening at? If so, what readings are you typically seeing. If not, I think if you are serious about heavy metal at high SPLs, you need to know.

What is your current amplifier, and how loud can it go before distortion?

You say you don't have "any room acoustic problem" at the moment. This may not be the situation in the future as you crank up the level.
