Tube Amp & Preamp for ML Summits?

I have decided to buy a set of Summits and am looking for some suggestions for a tube amp & preamp. I have a Resolution Audio Opus 21 CD player. I listen to accoustic, jazz, classical and female vocals mostly. Once in a while I do like to listen at a fairly high listening level but nothing crazy. I would like a remote for the pre and the amp needs some power to drive the Summits to a higher level. I would like to stay under $6500 for the pair. Any suggestions?

I talked to VTL about a ST-150. They stated they have tried that amp with the Summits and recomended something with more power. Unfortunatly the Summits dip to 0.7 ohms at times.

The Wolcotts interest me but they don't come up used very often.

I will keep my eyes open for the Wolcotts. Atmasphere, have you tried your amps with the Summits? If so which model would get me to a higher listening level. As I stated VTL said their 150 watt ST-150 would work but not sound good at higher levels,
