I have a few amps on my shortlist but would like to see what other members with B&W speakers might suggest. Tone, timbre and power or more of priority for me than ultimate detail and resolution. Thanks for any suggestions.

Scott - I have a Parasound P5 Pre-Amp with a Parasound A21 - 250 Watts per channel with B&W 702s2s. It's still new to me, but I'm liking the combination so far. The P5/A21 combo would be in the $3500 range.
