Ideal amp for B&W matrix 800


Hello everyone, I am looking for a great amp for my B&W MATRIX 800 speakers (the tall ones with the angular shaped bass cabinets, not the nautilus ones!).
I have a tight budget and live in Belgium.
My cd is Accuphase 500, preamp is solid state, no tone controls magnum Mp330.
I am looking for a 3d soundstage with lots of depth and emotional music playing. I therefore think of class A amps.
Hence... older krells? Tube amps would be a bad match as the speakers each have two 12 inch woofers. They are 4Ohms, with an impedance dip to 3 ohms in 100-200 Hz region. they are 93 dB/1W sensitivity though...
I could spend about 2000 euro but would prefer around 1000-1500 so I have budget for an accuphase preamp for phono (a c-280 or so). Would appreciate your input guys!
At the moment I localised a krell KSA-100 MKii for 850 e, a Krell KSA-200 S for 1750 e, a Krell FPB for 2000 e...
Or a Pass X250 for 2400 e.... Other suggestions are very welcomen these or just the ones that I found on sale some place now... I have never heard any of these amps...

My vote goes to all-Accuphase system. Your DP-500 should do well with P-450 power amp. It can be slightly above your budget though. Alternatively Pass X250 is certainly worth considering. My current system is Accuphase pre, power & CDP with B&W 802D.
Ok so, Bryston and Musical Fidelity are on my check list now :)
Accuphase would be great but very expensive indeed...
Any other B&W 800 owners like to share their experiences?
Or other suggestions...? Nobody as mentioned levinson so far? Not a good match?
If you want an amplifier that will drive anything connected to it with tremendous power and utterly transparent sound, give me a call in the US at (423) 842-1085. I am on Eastern Daylight Time which I believe is 6 hours behind your Central European Time. I am not a dealer, just a music lover and audiophile.
One of my audio systems I am vertically biamping with a pair of Krell KSA-250 amps. Extremely great match.
