The best $1500-2500 amp to run with Aerial LR5's


Where to start, I am using a Proceed bpa3 with the LR5's and they sound good but its only 125 watts and Aerials need juice.
The amp is only average and I am hoping for some help in picking out a amp to really set of the Aerials.

My system:
Aerial LR5 main
Aerial CC3 Center
B&W's Surround
Proceed BPA 3 fronts and center
Rotel RB985 for surrounds ( 3 Unused channels)
Arcam 92T CD
B&K Ref 50 Processor
Pioneer Elite DVD
MIT shotgun s3 Speaker cables
Various MIT interconnects
63" Philips Plasma

Music: Dave Matthews, ColdPlay, U2, Bruce, Pat Methany, Etc.. Sports in HD,

Thanks all you fellow audiophiles, I appreciate the suggestions.

For solid state I would look at Odyssey Audio amps and talk with Klaus; he will give you good advice without jamming his amps down your throat.
Is there anyone else who can make recommendations before I consider this next upgrade. Thanks
I'm not familiar with the Aerial LR5's, what do they sound like?

Take a look at the Gemstone Blue Diamond 200x7 for about $2800. This is a fast neutral amp with not the greatest noise floor. These can affect the system synergies. May make your system a bit too detailed. Which then leads to the flavor preference... detailed or "tubey"?
I highly recommend the Parasound Halo A21. Good luck finding something better in it's price range.
