Recommendation for a highly resolving amp

I have Don Sachs 2 tube preamp driving Pass Labs X350.5 driving Sound Lab M545 ESL speakers. I like the sound very much, but when I went to hear my friend’s Spectral system (driving Quad2912 ESL) I realized my system can benefit from having a higher resolution amp. Spectral amps need all Spectral preamp/cabling, which would be quite expensive. What would you recommend?

@chungjh Is your friend familiar with your system, your room and your preferences, etc.? If yes, what is he advising?

@chungjh  Thanks for answering my question. Your friend is going by his preferences and choices, not yours.

I recommend reaching out to others in your area to listen to your system and provide feedback, before making changes and purchases.

@lancelock has been very helpful in connecting me to the audiophile community in MD and DC. I suggest reaching out to him. He is in the Annapolis area.

The upcoming Capital Audio Fest may also allow you to connect to vendors and audiophiles in your vicinity.
