Best Intergrated Amp for JMR Twin Sigs under $500?

Any suggestions for a used integrated amp that will match well with JM Reynaud Twin Signature speakers (91dB/1W1m,4 ohms)?

I feel like maybe my current setup is not realizing their full potential.

Ive tried (in order of preference):
1. Cyrus 2 integrated
2. ASL Wave 8s
3. B&K ST-140

Power amps were used with preamp section of Advent 300 or NAD 3020.

Budget is $500, room is small, listen at low to mid volume.

Thanks.

Used tube integrateds:
Onix Melody SP3 (38wpc) ~$500-900
Primaluna Prologue One (35wpc) ~$700
Primaluna Prologue Two (40wpc) ~$900
Raysonic SP-120 KT-88 (50wpc) ~$800
Antique Sound Lab AQ 1001 DT KT-88 (50wpc) $450
Opera Consonance M100 signature (50wpc) $675

If it was me, though, I'd say up a few more pennies and probably go for a Manley Stingray (40wpc UL, 20 Triode)at ~$1,100. I just think their products are made to last and deliver performance.

In the Solid State camp:
YBA YA 201 (100wpc) $950(Canada) $950(USA) - YBA and Reynaud are a match made in heaven
Plinius 8150 (150wpc) $875
