Do I need a new amp?

Hello Audiogoners,

I've got a Marantz 7012 AVR, Triangle Stratos Volante 260 speakers, sources are primarily Tidal, Qoboz, and Spotify.   Speaker Cables are Chord Epic Twin, and power cables are all Mark Tunis Stealth.   My 845SE tube amps are at the shop being fixed and I'm thinking that these are not the best fit for me as the way I use my system is to leave it on for 8hrs/day almost every day.

I'm not satisfied with much about the sound without my tube amps.  The dynamics are compressed, the highs trail off, the bass is not deep, nor tight enough...   When my tube amps are "in" the system - I love the fluid/open/extended highs/liquid sound, but I think SS is more appropriate for the way I use my system.   I primarily listen to Jazz and Jazz variants.

I've been advised to get a new Integrated with HT pass thru.   Makes perfect sense, but the ones I like (e.g. Krell K300i) are $8k.   I'm on a $2k budget.   Should I just get some amps now and drive them with pre-outs form my AVR?   I'm OK with used equipment.

I'm thinking of Merrill Veritas (too expensive), Odyssey Khartago SE+, Bel Canto Ref 500M, Belles Reference 350, Mivera 1200AS, etc.    I don't know that I care what class the amps are, I just care about audio quality.

What advice do you have for a recovering tube guy?   Can I get satisfaction with SS?
