Which amplifier should i buy

Hi,
Iv'e already asked , quite similar question , but i would like to clarify my question. So , Iv'e ordered a new speakers, Magico A3 and now i want to buy an amplifier, a tube amplifier. The amount of money that i can allow myself is up to 20,000$. The possibilities that i thought about are : zesto eror 300 / vtl MB -450 series ||| signature / vac phi 170 (two - i mean transform it monobloc) . Those are the options that i thought about till now. Does anyone can recommend which is the best option in this amount of money , it doesn't have to be from the option list that i mentioned.Unfortunately  there are brands that i can not buy in my country (ISR) , for example cat....
Thanks to anyone .

PS Audio BHK monos. $15k/pair



Jays audio lab, (who also has a long running thread on this site) ays the PS Audio BHK monoblocks can go into protection mode on hard to drive speakers. I've heard this about them on more than one site/thread.

Another vote for tube preamp and ss amp. I have Cary SLP-98P F1 and modied SLP-05. Either one driving a Pass amp sounds excellent.

I’ve read that also about the BHK mono blocks. And do know that I’ve never had them go into protection mode on my Magneplanr 3.7i’s. Could be I just don’t push them hard enough I suppose.
