I'm buying the Beyer T1's very soon, and I need some help with a good tube amp pairing, I've been researching for close to 30 hours now, and I just can't decide. I'm from Europe, which complicates things a bit. I'm not on a budget per se, but I'm looking for something in the ~500 $ price range (few hundreds above or below is still fine). I want to try the syrupy sound of tube amps. 
 
I've been looking at Woo, where I can't decide between wa3 and 6se. There's also the problem of Woo not having a EU distributor.
 
I've been looking at Project Ember mk2, but I'm not sure I'm hooked on the idea of a hybrid. It looks cool though.
 
I've looked at the Little Dot mkIV, but have read a couple of horror stories about it. Something about it just doesn't sit right with me. 
 
The Schiit Valhalla 2 seems obvious, but it's I've read that it doesn't have the syrupy sound of many other tube amps.  
 
Bottleheads Crack + Speedbal seems to be a good fit too, but I'm not sure of my soldering skills. 
 
Lastly, I'd very much like to dabble into some tube rolling, as I find it very exciting.

I've heard people talk good about WA2 together with T1 but I haven't heard myself.
 
I'm gonna buy T1 as well soon and pair it with A20 amp.

Yes, I've heard good things about the WA2 too, but it's slightly above my price range. Just can't afford it, sadly. I think I'm going for the Little Dot Mk VI+

@Suuup  you know the answer to that now.

Elise + T1 is simply amazing both from a sonic and price point.
