Power amp suggestions

Anyone got suggestions for a stereo power amp to use with a pre for a bi-amped rig? 400w or more a side. So many out there. Aside from the usual suspects - Crown, Yam, QSC et al, anything else worth looking at? Worth spending more on Camco, MC2, etc?

Crest CA9 - the daddy. The power amp Jim Bergantino has recommended.

Copied from elsewhere on the forum:
"A 20-pound toroidal transformer is combined with eight large power supply caps for a total of 80,000 microfarads of capacitance. That's engineer-speak for obscene amounts of reserve power. The huge power supply stores current from the AC mains, and then releases it to reproduce power-hungry bass frequencies with an effortless, punchy response. Generous headroom, gobs of low bass, authoritative control over your subs--it's all right here."
