Tube amps under 1,800 for gallo 3.1's

I have been really wanting to try tube amps out for a long time now.
My budget is 1,800 used. I listen to rock music for the most part.

What amps will mesh good with my gallo 3.1's?

So far I'm looking at these amps in my price range.

Cary V12
Cary six pac mono's
Rouge M120 mono's
BAT VK60
ASL Hurricane mono's

I will take others into consideration also.

Thanks

Oh sorry it was a s300i. So I will need to pick up a preamp also.

You can bypass the pre-amp section of the bel canto and drive it with a tube pre-amp; I did and I think is added some of the elements you're seeking. Many options to consider, but I use a Rogue 99 (NOS tubes) which probably falls on the lusher side of things.

The bc with 99 were not quite as good as the 99 and Rogue 90 amp but it was really very close.
