FWIW, i talked to a guy that was using a SimAudio integrated, the i-3 or i-1 or something with his Nola Boxer 1's. the Sim offers great dynamics which helped out the bottom end. 
there are a lot of great used SimAudio amps on the market. they are solid, made inCanada with 20 year warranty. who offers that these days? nobody. 

to be honest, I haven't listened to the Boxers, but I bet that a hybrid (tube/SS) amplifier would sound great. 

Also, class D amps have come of age, so consider them as well.

I have Nola Boxer 1’s that I’ve been driving with a Creek 5350se integrated amp ($1500 in 2002, no longer available, sounds great with the Boxers but has developed reliability problems with ALPS input switch). Before I decided to go up-market I was seriously considering a Yamaha A-S801: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00N625HZ2. New, it's +$100 your budget amount but from my research worth the stretch to pair with the Boxers. So 2nd’ing what Yogiboy said.

ps: the Boxers benefit heavily from good stands. I use Dynaudio Stand 4 (~$400) - save up and get some (or equivalent).

Thank you, everyone, I will look into those ones. The M2Si sound like a good deal!
