Amp and Preamp recommendations for Yamaha NS5000


Currently have SOTM 200 ultra -> denafrips terminator +dsp board -> Audio gd he9 pre amp -> dual bryston 4bsst -> NS5000.
I am loving the sound... just sounds incredible. But wonder about amp and pre amp upgrades down the road. Any thoughts on what might work well? These speakers are 87 db efficient.
So far thinking all pass labs amps + pre.

Ok with buying used. Would like to keep things under $20k if I can. Thanks.

There are 2-3 easy recommendations that come to mind for the 5000s:

a) Musical Fidelity 800 NuVista or the latest M8xi
b) Dartzeel integrated model??? (there's only one I think)
c) Accuphase e480

All are integrated and their performance (IMO) easily beats any separates you can get anywhere near the price.
Just an idea! Regards
