Best AMP for Avalon Eidolon, ARC, CAT, VAC..?

I´m the owner of the Avalon eidolon, my current amp is a silvaweld OTL, but I need more power.

I´m looking for great dynamics and as the Eidolon is a little cool and lean, perhaps I need one amp that can compensate them.

My list is ARC 210, CAT JL signature, VAC Phi and as SS amps MBL 9007 and Lamm 1.2 reference.

The true is that I want one universal amp, that can use with differents speakers, now are Eidolon, after can be kharma, sound lab, Venture, Magico minis, Ayon... or any other brand and model.

Thanks for your advice

FWIW our customers report that the MA-2s are a nice combination with the Eidelons. In fact something like 95% of all the MA-2s built are running either Sound Labs or Eidelons.

Based on this my feeling is that the Avalons are a tube friendly load and I would be more concerned about what sounds right on them rather than getting the so-called 'universal' amplifier (which in reality does not exist if you want the best sound...).

Above all have fun!
