SS amp rec. for driving Wilson Sophia??

First off my W/Sophias will never get pushed. I live in an apt. I get so annoyed when Swat shows up and asks for me to un-crank. I have a Belles 150a hr version. I was thinking of the Belles 350a ref;cause I like the little Belles. Then I was reading an ad for the Ayre 5vx; (even cheaper) Ayre stuff run hot?? My dealer rec. McCormack but there isn't even one in the used ads. I'm probably looking for a stereo amp that does everything right for my speakers/ costs 12k new and sells for 3k,used-- sure--- George

All the amps above are good performance/price ratio. And I've tried all of them except the Ayre 5vx. I had a pair of Belles 150A Reference Monoblock, McCormack DNA-500 and now have a pair of Parasound JC-1 monoblocks and a pair of Belles 350A Reference monoblocks. As good as the Belles 150A HR, the reference is another league especially the 350A Ref. Check out their web-site http://www.powermodules.com and see what the former retired dealer rave about the 350A ref.
