Tube amp with SS like bass


I demoed a used BAT VK-60 amp and while the mids and highs were very good I just could not warm up to the bass. I have the VK-200 and am spoiled by its wonderfully tight bass response.

Can I have what I'm looking for under 2K, preferably, 1.5K?

Contenders are:
Butler 2250
Audio Research VS-55
BAT VK-55
Rogue 90

Any others to consider?

I always wanted to try an Audio Research VT100MkII, which supposed to have very good bass definition, but unfortunately, with my speakers, this amp is not an option. But if you do have efficient speakers, you can consider this amp. Right in your price range too. I think they sell good, so if you don't like it, you can re-sell it(although it's extra effort, but may be worth it). What is the preamp and speakers you are using?
