Amp recommendation for AKG K1000's headphones?


I recently gave into temptation & picked up a pair of AKG K1000's. I've wanted a pair for ages & with their retirement there was no time like the present. Now comes the interesting part of finding an amp that pairs well with them :)

But before making the leap into uncharted territory [for me] I was curious what amps might be worth an audition? To level-set -- ideally this will become a dedicated headphone rig, so the scope of this decision doesn't need to account for synergy with my existing front-end gear.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Hi,
I am using the Cary 300SEI with WE300B too, but also I like the KR Antare which use had about 15w pre side. This gives more authority in the bass and also has higher extention in the upper range. I am going to try the Grace M902 as they said it should be able to drive the K1000. It will be good for use in the office.
