Vincent vs. Odyssey vs.? Power amp advice

Hi all,
Looking for some advice. System includes Peachtree Nova fed by an Apple TV (lossless files). REL T3 sub and Maggie 1.6s. I want to bring in a suitable power amp and am trying to do it for $1200 or less. Short list is the Vincent 331 and Odyssey ( basic Stratos or upg. Khartago). Music is all over the place but not much orchestral/classical. Mostly old jazz and current alternative/ folk. Lots of vocals. I really want to get the most out of the speakers on a limited budget (don't we all)

Thanks in advance. I appreciate the help!

Thanks for your responses. I've recently stumbled upon some rave reviews of the Wyred4Sound stuff as well (just to complicate things further!)

Edge22,
Thanks for your note. I appreciate the first-hand account with (eerily) similar gear! I have been poring over a bunch of threads including several good write-ups on the Emotiva products. While I'm sure they would be a big step-up from the Nova, the Odyssey and Wyred4Sound are probably the front-runners right now and the Red Dragon stuff looks very interesting as well. While I would consider something used, there is definite appeal to buying brand new, especially if it's the right "something"

thanks!
