Recommendation for Class-A integrated amp

I am looking for a SS Class-A integrated amp that is in 20 to 40W range, the short list I have so far are:

Sugden A21SE
Pass INT25
Luxman L-590AXII

Are there more you would recommend to check into?

TIA for any inputs.

I nearly went that route but decided Pass had resale and Coda? Well probably not so much. Luxman is out in my opinion. Compared Sudgen to Pass. No comparison-Pass much better. Some nice Nazi gear out there. I prefer my service in the USA.
