Best Dark Sounding Amp For Bright Speakers?

You could build a zoebel network to roll off the highs. Costs a lot less than a amp. You can use different combinations of resistors and capacitors to tweak the roll off to your liking.

I am having the same problem with Kappa 6 Infinity's Tryed a few amps including Carver and Adcom now using a Mcintosh mc2200 sounds good but the best sounding (most dynamic) is a soundcraftsmen type H amplifier, The only problem is the amp has been undependable and is in for repair again. The soundcraftsmen has a lot of attack and is very warm, some other amps sound steril with my Kappas. I have been told that type H amps are often used for sound reinforcement clubs djs and the alike. Also Denon cd players have a warm sounding dac I have found. Hope this helps-Guycom

Mfb33,
If you DIY, Try a generic larger powercord preferably the type with overall metal braid before going the more expensive ways. Refinement type powercords can be pursued later after you know the size and geometry to look for.

Just come across this powercord phenomenon:
Without metal braiding - bright & airy, lightweight.
The SAME cable With metal braiding - darker, deeper stage, heavier.

Your result may vary slightly from mine, but its fun to DIY and understand your system first before buying the more expensive refined versions.

Conrad Johnson MF 2200 or a BAT 3i preamp.

Mfb33, drop me an email. I'd like to send you a pair of interconnects to try out and see what you think. Need to know some specifics though before throwing them in the mail. Sean
