Spica TC-50 and amp advice

I was recently given a pair of Spica TC-50 speakers and am not sure which direction I should go regarding an amplifier. In the meantime, a friend is letting me borrow his Baldwin 6L6 tube amp. I'll also be running a PS Audio IV preamp, California Audio Labs CL-10 cd player and a Rega turntable. I'm newly divorced and finally get to enjoy my equipment. My new living room is approximately 13'x14', and I have thousands of live shows I've collected through the years and want to be able to get the best out of what I'm working with. I've budgeted $500 for an amp and don't know which route to go. Any advice or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Nearly everyone missed that you have a PS Audio IV preamp which is still quite viable with separate power supply. There are several very good choices to include the Hafler 120, the best sounding Hafler amp. The Dynacos are great also.

This speaker is fairly simple to crossover upgrade and will sound much better with improved imaging, detail, quickness and extended bottom. They also need good stands.
