Krell. And choose your speakers at the same time!

Krell, and I agree, sounds like this is an amp/speaker combination your looking for.

I use Krell, but speaker choice is a huge factor.

Getting the bass out of any amp requires attention to all details- proper electricity (dedicated line) power conditioner that doesn't restrict bass, ditto power cord, interconnects and most often overlooked vibration dissipation devices like Herbies' isocups- oh yeah and speaker placement
