Help Tube Power Amp Recommendations

Hello,
I have Sonus Faber Concertos
Granite Audio 770FP (all tube Preamp)

I am looking for a change of pace and want to try a tube power amp. I am looking to spend 1500-1700 max. Right now I have a B and K reference 2220 SS Amp. I am note sure how to match impedeance etc. I almost exclusively listen to jazz and blues lps. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Here is the link to the granite audio preamp

The rule of thumb on impedance is you want the input impedance of your amp to be 10x the output impedance of your preamp.

I don't know if they meet that requirement, but I recommend the Primaluna amps. They have soft start and autobiasing to keep your maintenance minimal, your tubes sounding their best and living their longest.
