Tube Amps With Good Bass Qualities

I have been reading over posts about tube amps and their bass qualities. I understand that for the most part, that a ss amp with have an edge in bass qualities compared to a tubed amp. Damping factor, etc. But I can give up a little of that edge for what I enjoy in the midrange qualities of a tubed amp. So my question is, what tube power amps have you heard that have good bass qualities?  Raven, Quicksilver, Mac, etc.?   Let's give a price point. 5K or under. What do you think?

+1 On Primaluna Especially the HP (they also have a sub out tap)

Found Atmosphere's response fascinating. 

If I understand correctly that you have Klipsch Heresy’s w/ a frequency response of 58-20,000 Hz..then a sub couldn't hurt. 

I run a small sub (many to find used) and wow. With a PL too under 5K.
