Best Amps for B & W 800D speakers

I have looked at several amps for 800Ds. The Classe monoblocks, the McIntosh 500w monoblocks and various Krell amps. Any recommendations for the best amps for these speakers for under $15,000? Thanks.

They put out 600 wpc into 8 ohms & 1.2K wpc into 4 ohms. I just got a pair & they do sound more like tubes than any other SS amps I have heard. Do a google on the Nemo's.
