I am using the Audio research VT 100 MK II and love it. I was using the Bryston 4B-ST and found that the tube sound of the VT 100 is more to my liking. My pre-amp is a Audio Research Reference 1.
Another to consider is the famous British make Sugden-I have this combo but at a lower level-combining the Sugden A21a integrated amp and Proac Studio 150's. You could perhaps consider the Sugden Masterclass series....
