Amplifier for Vandersteen 5A' s ?


I recently had an opportunity to listen to the Vandy 5a's and was really impressed. I currently own the Pass X-600's and think they do a remarkable job with my Magnepans, but if I buy the Vandys I would like suggestions on other amps that mate well with the speakers. Tube or SS, and preferably mono's. The budget for the amps should not exceed $6500 used. Thank you much for your suggestions.

I have the 5A's and I think the best bang for the buck that match that speaker perfect is the amp that Richard vandersteen and I use the Quicksilver v4. I had rca switched to balanced and think it is woth the upgrade. They are very low maintance take a varity of tubes and sound grate. Also 120 Whatts...

I have also herd the Cary on them the 308 siginature edition and think they sound a bit more open but they are of course twice the money.
