What’s the most badass $2k amp I can get?


I want a super awesome amp. New or used. I have a fully balanced DAC and Pre so xlr balanced inputs would be nice, plus I have a nice pair of xlr just lying around. Also, I’m a sucker for meters. What should I get? It’s a bedroom system, not a big room appx 12x12
Speakers: Sierra 2ex  (86db sensitivity)
Streamer: Node2i
dac: gungnir multibit
pre: Freya+ (w killer NOS tubes!)

I was selling a my audio research gsi75 intergraded amp, and had packed it up. My deal for my new (to me) 160m mono blocks was going to take a few more weeks and my local audio store offered me this unit as a loaner to see what I thought of it.  OMG the sound stage on this intergraded amp was amazing. Bass was better than any amp I have had in my system. Very nice mids and not fatiguing at all. 

A dealer has one brand new for $2495.00 on audiogon.  If I was looking in this price range, I would own this intergraded amp. 
The one I-had in my home was bought by a buddy of mine that came by and heard It in my setup.  
I really think this amp is one that you should at least look at. 
There is an LSA Statement integrated on US Audiomart for about $1800. Tube preamp stage with a very high quality amplifier section. Get the one with the Exemplar upgrades. The preamp section can be bypassed and use just the amplifier section. A really good piece of gear. The preamp section in it is very good and it also has built in phono stage.
