Amp for Talon Raven C

hi
i am looking for an amp that matches the talon raven c well.
i am open to pre/power amp combinations or integrated and would prefer to have tubes in the pre section.
prize range is 4000$ used but less would be better.
i read good things about

Belles 150 A ref
Simaudio Moon W5
Electrocompaniet MOnos 220 W

preamps i had on my shortlist:

Dehavilland ultraverve
Cary slp 98 or 2002
conrad johnson?

any shared experiences with these or others would be very welcome.
cable recommendations are also appreciated.for now i use analysis plus .
thanks
siepi

I've often thought that Blue Circle amps would be good match for Talon speakers. I haven't heard any pairings, it's just that Blue Circle amps take hold of speakers like no other amp I've heard, especially in the bass ranges, and still retain an incredible musicality. Talon is well known for its musical speakers. 2 + 2 = something more than 4?

Has anyone heard a BC/Talon pairing or have any thoughts on the match?

Regards
