Amp for VR4SR


I am looking for an amp to run my VR4SR.
My music is mainly vocal, strings and classic.
Has anyone checked VAC AVATAR vs UNISON RESEARCH - PREFORMANCE ?
Second hand will be just fine.
Budget is up to $5K- $6K
Would like to also hear about SS amp and or combination of Preamp + power amp - as long as it was checked Specifically with the VR4SR.
Thank you

I am very pleased with the Spectron Musician 3SE, now an MK2, running my 4 Seniors. Plenty of muscle to make them sing! I'm currently using a Belles 28A pre (SS), but also use a Modwright 9SE (tube) on occasion. The Spectron is sensitive to IC cables...AZ Mattrix Ref IIs are my choice. Check out the other threads on the Spectron. Yes..they are all true.
I would suggest as much power as you can possibly get. I think they can sound uninvolving unless they get plenty of power. I chose the Parasound JC-1s over the VTL 450s and am using a solid state Ayre K-1x preamp. Maybe dynamics won't be at the top of your want list with the kind of music you like most but as far as I can tell they just don't jump to life without some power.
