I hear that, it is easy to get caught up in an entanglement of Gear.
I travelled in heavy rotation from 2011 to late 2015. Found and purchased by loudspeakers in early 2016 and have not travelled abroad since then.
Good thing too as I had a few unexpected homeowners' financial obligations in 2017 and 2018. As much as I love Audio and Music, my home will always come first. That said 2019 is looking very promising - I have (3) Audio operations in Atlanta (Hifi Buys Atlanta, The Audio Company and Wolfsong Audio) are long overdue for a visit.
Now, to address your query;
Yes, at 30W Class A operation, Accuphase, Luxman and Pass Labs are top-tier Audio companies. Contributor dhoff01 here endorses Accuphase power amp for his CS 3.7 loudspeakers. I have not had the aural pleasure of auditioning any of these manufacturers to date. I have found a Pass Labs dealer/retailer (finally) in central Florida that warrants a trip in Spring. Ayre is another hot contender that is enjoyed by a few Thiel owners. Hope this information has been helpful.
Happy Listening!
