Apogee Duetta Sigs? Help with new amp

I am looking for some help with a new amp for the Apogees.A friend has these with an Aragon 8008, BAT 3i preamp and an Audio Research CD 1 cdp. The Aragon is hooked up to the BAT with a long run of balanced Vampire ics that are copper with a silver coating. He has Cardas Golden Cross from the cdp to the pre. He is looking for a more refined, sweeter sound ie less bright. He is looking used in the ballpark of $2500 to $3000. As of now he is thinking a used Plinius SA 250 MkIII. Any thoughts or suggestions would be very welcomed. Thanks.

The older Krell amps also do a great job. I used a pair of KMA-100 MkII's for 6 years. KMA 160's also do nicely.

BTW, I'm driving the Duetta Signatures with Pass Aleph 1.2's now, and they're a great combination. Much sweeter than the Krells on mids and highs. Not quite as much bass "slam", but a tighter more natural bass.

The Classe DR's mentioned above are also a good match.
