Tube amp for Quad 989???

I'm looking for advice on getting a tube amp for my Quad 989's. My room size is 16x13x11. I'm looking to spend 1500-2500 used. I could go to 3000 if there was a compelling reason. I've been considering BAT, Quicksilver, and Manley.

Best amplifiers in your price range on the quads in my experience.

The Quad Mono's
VTL Mono 125
and still my favorite
YBA Passion Integre', is the perfect amp for the Quads.

What I would do is probably get rid of the QUADS.

Maybe so, Jordi, but we don't care what YOU think of Quad 988s and 989s; WE love 'em.
