Thank you for the comments so far. My budget is pretty fixed unless I want to sleep on the couch. Any advice between the two amps. i know the Tsakaridis Aeolos might be a tough one to get opinions on.

I am getting back into "Audio". around 15 years ago I had an AV receiver driving some Kirksaeter Silverline 120’s. I still have the speakers but the amp is long gone. My wife and prefer tubes. Budget is 5 - 6K for amps and eventual speakers. I have researched out and come down to the following:
Eventual Replacement Speaker for Kirksaeter:
Salk Song Series
Focal Aria 926 - I have heard the Chora 826 but not these
Amp Options:
AVA Transcendence 10 RB and a Vision Set 120
Tsakaridis Aeolos Tube Integrated
Input will be BlueSound Node and eventually possibly a turntable.
I have not heard either of the amps but they both fit in as far as price point (2,000 - 2500) leaving me roughly 4k for speakers. Has anyone heard these amps or speakers? I forgot to add music we listen too. Everything from Sinatra, Dean Martin to Led Zeppelin and alternative rack and a lot of blues including B.B and SRV.
