Best SS Amp with tight clean bass


I have a pair of Polklsi15 speakers. The problem is they have a great tweeter and mid, but the bass is very ragged and loose. I want to match a good tight amp on the lower to try to aleviate the problem somewhat. Next i will mess around with the cables.
P.S. I just bought the new Rogue Audio Cronus Int amp and it is absolutely wonderfull. Any responses on the above would be appreciated.

I am not an electrical engineer and do not understand the technical side of the numbers, but I think what you are looking for is an amp with a high damping factor. "When one amplifier's damping factor is higher than another's, that tells you that the amplifier with the higher damping factor can better control the speaker systems, and all other things being equal (frequency response, phase shift, distortion, etc.) that it is a better amplifier."

I agree with Brb9. The Bel Canto REF1000 monoblocks have a damping factor in excess of 1000. I can tell you from personal experience: absolutely amazing, stunning bass control.
