Speaker interactions aside, what solid state amp brands/designers tend to have a fuller sound these days? Not necessarily warm or tubey per se, but fleshed out in the upper bass and harmonically complete in the midrange, as opposed to lean. E.g. an Australian ME Sound amp I have from a while back has this quality, without sounding overtly warm.
Obvious candidates: Pass, Luxman. What else?
Cost no object, feel free to throw out one-liners. Think of it as a poll. (Please don't answer tubes though, thanks. :D )
I am also a fan of Pass when it comes solid state, loved the CJ 2250 and 2250 ss amps when I owned them 10 to 12 years ago and wonder if their new amps would be a good choice as well. Should be easy to get in front of them for an audition.
