...Hawks were driven by Plinius 8200 and Forests probably by fancy looking Nuvista?
I use with Forests VTL MB100 and feel that it's sufficient enough. They're not so tough to drive since they don't have large impedance falls. I've heard them driven by Pathos TwinTowers 35W/ch successfull as well.
I would suggest getting Plinius 8200 integrated amplifier that is probably the most valuable integrated amp that can beat separates in its price range. Krell/Forest combo seems to be too edgy and too bright to me.
...than more reasonable will be bryston 3b-st that you can later-on add another one to use them in horizontal bi-amp.
Bryston does its minimalistic job perfect and doesn't cost $$$$$.
