I would suggest the McCormack DNA-500. Read any of the rave reviews on this piece - they are on the money.
I am continually amazed at how good this amp sounds in my system - tight powerful bass, great midrange, sweet highs, very dynamic yet also reveals all the slight nuances in the musical soundstage. Easily one of the best amps around under $10K, and maybe even under $20K. Power to spare, with excellent musicality, layering and lots of air around the instruments. Solid state just doesn't get much better than this without spending LOTS more $$$$$, IMO!
