Tube Amp Recommendations

Dear All
Can anyone recommend suitable tube amps to use with Merlin TSM-MX Speakers. I have not yet finalised the budget so a range of selections from US$1,000 upwards (perhaps to US$6,000) would be much appreciated - including those which can then be upgraded at a later date with the addition of power amps/monoblocs. I was considering the Audiopax Model 5 (I now it is a solid state) with a future purchase of the Audiopax Stereo 88 tube amp just to give an idea.
Many thanks
James

When I owned my VSM-MX's, I almost went with the Berning ZH-270 myself, very hard to beat considering it's price point, and performance. I choose instead to go a different direction... Perhaps, in retrospect not the best move after all. Keep it simple, and enjoy the music. 8^) Also, ping Bobby P. about the Integrated amp he's been working on.
cheers, & happy holidays to all

p.s. Very nice system Mr. ArtG

James, understood. Again the best way to get the information your seeking is to contact Bobby @ Merlin. Afterall, he designed these bad boyz so who would know better of what will, or will not work. Just a thought...I know this will save you a lot of time and disappointments.
Cheers and good luck.
