Amps for AD2000

From what ive read and understand the AD2000 are suited to SS amps rather than tubes.

 

What im asking is what amps do people think are suited to the AD2000s ?
 

These will be used with all genres of music but mainly rock/metal/hip-hop/electronic.

 

Maybe different suggestions in different price ranges ? Im prepared to spend £500+ but would rather not throw money away :)

 

From my understanding the Dynalo is good but i dont feel comfortable to build it myself and the gilmore lite is not longer in production. Anyone know another prebuilt i could get my hands on (UK) ?

 

Cheers and thanks in advance :)

Do you have a DAC already? If not definitely look into the Yulong D100. It was my favorite with my D7000 over the Schiit Lyr, Valhalla, Peachtree Decco2 & Nova.

 

Fantastic unit all around and leaves a lot of room for expansion later on.
