ProAc Response 2: CJ CAV45, Cary SEI 300B, or Cary Rocket 88?


Looking at the amps listed in the title to pair with my newly acquired ProAc Response 2: CJ CAV45, Cary SEI 300B, or Cary Rocket 88

Looking for the best tone and most in-the-room presence possible. Also want tuneful/rhythmic bass vs depth/authority.

Any feedback from those who have heard any of these, especially with ProAc would be appreciated.

Thanks!

unless the room is pretty small or you like to listen quite softly, 300b is ruled out

cav 45 vs rocket88 a matter of taste, both are on the tubey, rich slow side, treble will be sweet, midrange will be luscious, but bass will be bloomy and little mushy

rocket 88 maybe a touch better in that regard, but cav45 may have better resolution in the treble and mids
