Amp recommendation in the $6000 range

After being out of the hobby for a few years I'm now looking for a used amp in the 6K range to drive my Magico V3, I had interest in a Pass Labs X350.5 but with this model out for 10 years I don't think it would be a wise investment. I'm looking mainly at solid state stereo amps but is open to tubes and other ideas. My other requirement is I do like power, so at least 150 watt for tube, 200 watt for SS. Thanks in advanced.

I've heard Pass .5 vs .8 series and yes differences but with some gear I've preferred 0.5 but still not huge differences.
I'd consider (at least try and get a listen) to the Merrill THOR monoblocks. I've heard them in 3 systems and every time they have amazed me.
