Replacing SimAudio W-3 with Ayre V-3

I make my own speakers. I tune them to be slightly "lean" but only very slightly but I don't think it's the speakers. I've tried the CJ MF2500 but it has too much bass for my setup. I am thinking of going with something slightly warmer with a bit more power. I am taking a look at either a Gamut or Plinius.

Your problem's aren't the sim's fault.

What are your speakers, preamp, and sources? More importantly, how are the speakers setup in your room, and what is going on for acoustics?

Have you treated the front wall, back wall, side walls, and ceilings for reflections?

Andy,
What speakers are you using? That matters a lot and it's pretty hard to render an opinion without that info. It's best to consider the amp/speaker combo as a single component they're so inter-related. Off the cuff without knowing your speakers how about a tube amp? A c-j would give you great synergy, if you like that sound. But more info please.
