Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range

I'm listening to an STA-200 right now. I use it in my office with a pair of KEF Q150's and an Emotiva XDA2 dac. It's a great amp. I've used it at home with an Exogal Comet Dac and Salk Song3's and it sounded great. I also had the Job225 amp and couldn't really tell a difference so I sold the Job and kept he STA-200. Audio Advisor sometimes has them open box for under $450. Can't be beat at $500 or less in my opinion. 

However, there are also interesting options in this price point. First amp I'd consider as an option is Van Alstine's new SET 120 amp for about $800. There's also used deals frequently for Odyssey amps and Wyred4Sound amps that are under $1000. There's also the Schiit Vidar and their new Class A amp the Aegis (or something like that, just released today). If you can do tubes I'd look out for a used Primaluna Prologue 4 or 5. You can often find those under $1k. Those are amps I'd consider.

May need to add the Schiit Aegir to the list now that it’s available. It’s $100 more than the Vidar, but supposed to sound better overall as long as you don’t listen at high levels with inefficient speakers. The Vandy 2Cs are 88db efficient and I do like to listen loud once in a while, so if I wanted to go this direction, I may have to monoblock them, however if I do this I would have to get a better preamp that is balanced (since that is the only way to monoblock them). So, likely won’t go this direction...taking off the list...LOL

I bet that Job 225 is fantastic since the website is so bad. Normally there is an inverse correlation between how bad the website is to the performance of the product. 

Have not mentioned this yet, but I believe the Behringer amp comes supplied with no more than a 14 gauge power cord ( likely 16 gauge ). I am a power cord junkie, and without spending much money, you can buy a very reasonably priced 10 gauge power cord, which will, ime, give you more of everything you are looking for, and in the case of amp upgrading, you can always use it on the next amp. Hopefully, others will agree with me. If this sounds interesting to you, let me know what length cord you need, and I will recommend one or two, or, you can easily build one.
