What headphone amp would I buy for under 2.5k USD if I wanted solid state, enough power for Susvara, and a very wide presentation?
Wide staging amplification.

I have and enjoy the iFi Pro iCan Signature. It's worth taking a look at.
I have the Topping A90/D90 and it can't be beat for soundstage. The A90 discrete has a little more power but not really better. The 5 volt D90 will really help with the Susvara.

How does an amplifier affect soundstage?

I'm not entirely sure. But the two I have are both known for being a bit narrow and they do sound slightly different so I am hoping there's something to this.
Ampsandsound Forge 32/300 version (not the 8/100 ohm) at 1.5K is unbeatable at soundstage expansion for Susvara at its used street price. You must use a booster box or Schiit Saga+with RCA 5692 Red Base to bring the best out of the Forge

Thanks for your suggestions everybody. I ended up buying two different amps for the future with the intention of keeping one.
