Revel Studios- amplfier suggestions please


Hello everyone
interested in people's experience with amplifiers for these awesome speakers.
i am driving them currently with a cal audio mca 2500 (500 wpc)
wondering if any "audiophile amps" either monoblock or stereo would give me a significant improvement?
also how do you all like these speakers?

Tubes are good, but I ended up with an interesting alternative harmonic precision. These are 110 wpc mono amps that are over 97% efficient. Incredible sound with my Revels. Very tubelike, but with advantages of solid state. Check out audiopoints.com. The levinson 400 series amps are great as well as conrad johnson.
I don't have any problem with brystons. I think they have very similar features as proceed which pair quite well with the studios. I think either one of these would work well. I have heard the Brystons and initially hooked my studios to the HPA2 with great results. I would also look at conrad johnson. I initially had a system with Revel M20s,ect. hooked to amp2s and 3s, which were obviously satisfactory but generated a lot of heat for the space. I got the cj 5 channel amp to try out and the results were great. Very warm sound. These amps paired very well the Revels and a corresponding 2 channel would probably do well with the studios at a little higher power.
