If you can get the Allnic I would vote for that I have heard them and they are that good. T
he other non tube choice (I agree at that level SS is better) which is a giant killer is the Graham Slee. You should be able to get one for well under $1,000 brand new. They don't come up for sale used much I noted. Prolly because people really like them.
