Sonus Faber Venere 2.5 amplifier Recommendation

Using a Conrad Johnson MV55 at 45wpc. Feel like I need a little more control of the bottom end. Does anyone have a recommendation for an amp or integrated that is synergistic with these speakers.

I borrowed a friend's roguee audio at 100 wpc tonight. It did tighten the bottom end up but sounded less transparent than the cj and it's el34. Would prefer tubes but is this a speaker that needs solid state for best performance.?

In heavy rotation now is classic jazz. But listen to rock as well that is where things get more confused. Vocals on the other hand sound great.

Right now the speakers are in a room and the house sits on a concrete slab and so do the speakers. Do you think I should decouple them from the floor?

I did Prefer the Rogue over the PM. But that is just MHO. Audiogalore that is one powerhouse setup. I don't have carpet on my floors I have a vinyl covering on the slab. where I have my spike protectors. did you use the standard spikes or special spikes? I also wish that I could move the speakers around easily are you able to do that with the granite slabs that you had made?
