pre's and amps that match well with Electro EMC-1

I have an Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MK-II CD player. Like myself, many others are very pleased with its performance.

My question is: what are you folks matching with this cdp for pre and power amplification...solid state, tubes, combination?

What do you feel works best and why?

Also, what is your preference in music types?

I primarily listen to rock/jazz. I am looking for input incase I should make changes in my other gear.

Thanks
