Single ended Power amp recommendation

I just recently purchased a pair of SAP J-M2001 MKII and need to change my power amps. Currently using BAT-DK5 to Emotive Audio Sira LE and Conrad Johnson Premier 8A.
Since the SAP are horn speakers, I heard that it should be best with single ended poweramps w/ zero feedbacks. Any suggestion and recommendation?
I'm thinking to sell my Conrad Johnson Premier 8A so the budget should be around 5-6k.
Thanks!

30 watts is more than enough power for any kind of material for most speakers with a 99db efficiency rating....10 watts would be plenty

300b sounds better...for the best sound with 845 amps you would want top notch NOS tubes...budget at least 1000 US for a pair of NOS 845 tubes..they are much more expensive than quality 300b tubes (300 to 400/pr..sophia, TJ)

You can have a custom single ended 300b (or 2a3 or push/pull) interstage coupled amplifier built for you for 4000 including a warranty. This amp would have custom would Electraprint transformers and come in two chassis; one amp and one power supply. No noise, great sound, and a tremendous power supply for those transients. If interested let me know.
