Solid state amp around 2000-2500 used or new

I currently have a Odyssey khartago, and am looking to upgrade to another solid state amp of around the same power 100-200 watts. Right now I am considering a used Pass Labs X150.5 or something from Mckormack (maybe a DNA-125). Any other contenders in this price range?

My switch from a Odyssey to a AVA Synergy 550 was a big step up.

big dif with snergy was hearing every line of each instrument in symphony or stingquartet which is most of what i listen to most, much more solid and tuneful base as well.

Sorry, my amp is a 450, there is no 550, my minds going. in any event its doing a great job right now letting me hear all all the lines and instruments in Brahms 3rd, something neither my Odyssety Khartago or Stratos could, sweet as they were.
