Best tube amp for my system ---- 1k used????


I'm going back to tubes! I need to drive my Genesis APM 2's. The woofers have dedicated amps, so all I need is power for the mids and twts. Speakers are 4 Ohms/90 dB.
Audio Analogue Maestro CD. New Pre-amp in the works, but not yet decided either.
What's the most musically accurate/realistic sounding amp I can get for $1,000 used, keeping in mind the 4 Ohm load?
VTL? Rogue? Sonic Frontiers? Others?
Thanks for your input.

Spend a few bucks more. There is a Music Ref 9Mk2 for 1450. in the ads now. This is a musical amp.for sure. It has user biasing,(per quad)can use el34's 6550's kt88's.--Talk about a tube roller's delight.A former Stereophile class a. I owned one for 3/4 years, so, no it ain't mine.From what I have read here in past threads;it's better than a 120.
