Mark Levinson with Vandersteens?

Hey all, hoping you can help me find a great SS match for Vandersteen Treos.

I have heard them with the Ayre V-5xe and was impressed but not blown away. A friend suggested the ML 532H would have more weight and body while retaining the definition.

Music = everything from Miles to Massive Attack but almost no classical.

System = hi-res files thru a Bel Canto 2.5 DAC/preamp direct into amp in a room 20w x 16d x 10h.

Thanks in advance.

I've owned 2A Sigs and 3A Sigs. I've had very good luck with McCormack Amps with the SMc mods. My favorite amp for Vandys in MY system was a Belles 150A Reference. However, when I purchased the 3A Signatures, the owner was powering them with a Pass Labs amp (don't know which one) and it was the best I've ever heard Vandersteens sound.

Good luck in your search.
