Tube Amp Suggestions

I have had the audio affliction for about 10 years. I am finally ready to venture into the world of tube amps and would appreciate any ideas my fellow audiophiles might have. My current set up is theta basic II with a camelot uther IV going directly into a pass labs aleph 5 and audio physic virgo II speakers. All wiring is tara labs air 1. Budget is $2,000 to 3,000 new or used.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Thanks for the suggestions. To answer a couple of questions that have been posed. The virgo's have an 89db sensativity and pose a 4 ohm load. My room is 14'X20'X9'. Anyone had experience with the Rogue Magnum M120 with these speakers.

Thanks Again

I kind of apologize for starting this thread. Would not a hybrid amp with a tube input stage and a ss output stage capture the best of both worlds. A musical reference rm200 (which I believe is a hybrid amp), was suggested by someone early in this post. A used rm200 was offered on audiogon the other day but got snapped up immediately.

Anyway thanks for all of the comments.
