If budget is your limiting factor then I guess NAD would work but, the Vandys are fairly inefficient and will improve as your electronics improve. If you listen to Rock like I do you want a lively sounding amp and not sure if NAD would be a good fit. Their stuff sounds a bit relaxed to me. As an owner of 2CE signatures, I have had a number of amps, never spending more than $900 and I have gotten the best performance on the TAD 125 monoblocks by Bizzy Bee audio. Their stuff is a wonderful bang for the buck and Paul is great to work with. What is your budget?
