High Quality Integrated to power Mani-2

I am in the market for a high quality integrated (new) to power my brand new pair of Totem Acoustic Mani-2 Signatures. I want to keep the price under $3500, phono stage is not necessary but would be a bonus. Must provide over 350 watts per channel @ 4 ohms and still be able to handle the low ohm swings of the mani-2 (down to 1 ohm). The ones I have found so far that meet my criteria are

Plinius 9200
Musical Fidelity A5
Krell KAV-400xi

Does it have to be new, because I think the Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista wouuld be a nice addition to that list, and it goes for slightly over 3500 on agon. I think it would be a better option than the A5 (plus it has an adequate phono stage).

Forgot to add the Jeff Rowland Concerto, which I'm eager to audition as well, but on paper should drive the Mani's but it's over your price limit (5900). Don't know if the new Sim has enough juice, but it is sweet looking! My dealer in NY (In Living Stereo) said they got a revised shipping date of Sep. 01 (previously had been August).
