Help me build my system - amp for b and w 705 s2.


Hi everyone,
I was hoping to gain the insight and advice of everyone here in help choosing an amp ( separates or integrated ). I recently bit the bullet on a pair of bowers and wilkins 705 s 2 bookshelves. My source is a blue sound node 2 which I eventually plan on adding a separate dac to. I’m looking for something slightly warm sounding with good resolution that is not too edgy / bright or fatiguing in terms of amplifier. I was thinking a rotel rb 1552 or Parasound a 23 + for the amp with a schiit saga + or Freya + if the sound quality is worth the double in price. I am also open to integrated as well. FYI not a fan of the Parasound Hint even though I know many who like it. Not sure if the a 23 would sound the same as I would go with a different pre on it . To my ears it just was not detailed enough. I’d like to keep in the $ 2,500 range. Any advise and suggestions would be highly appreciated!

To play loud you are going to be stuck with high power solid state, and all the edgy bright fatiguing sound that you don’t want. But that is what you get from SS, at least from 100+ watt amps at this price point.

so a used bryston, edge, krell amp, pass labs in that price range is going to have fatiguing sound?         
find that highly unlikely, but you seem to know everything.
