Try an atc sia-150.  A hidden gem.

I prefer Plinius 9200 over MF A5.

Plinius 9200 is now has blanced input and (from the picture on plinius' website) binding post is easier to twist ( i guess this is from WBT)

ditto on the atc sia2-150:  150 watts of class a power and what smooth, open music it renders. build quality is awesome, a real beast. as unfashionable as it is (in these pages at least), i have paired it with some atc scm-12 monitors and the sound is superb. (wayne's fully-modded squeezebox 2 sources this setup - can i plug wayne here?!). the flat earth audio people are wonderful to deal with and are the u.s. distributors, i think.

I'm a huge fan of balanced connections so that is always a factor for me, but ignoring that another critical feature, to me at least, is being able to separate the preamp from the amp. This is the best way to add a subwoofer. Bryston, Creek and NAD are units I know have this capability.
