The VAC 30/30, purchased used, would likely be a smart choice. Top-notch build quality, very sophisticated sound, and far more powerful than the 32 watt/channel rating would suggest (it can drive a lot of speakers). The use of long-life 300B output tubes and automatic biasing of the tubes make it very easy to own (just turn it on and off -- that's it).
They are available used for a fraction of their very high new price because people don't know how good or how potent the amp is.
Good luck.
