Mbump, based on what you’re looking for and your speakers, I would recommend either a Vitus SIA-025 class A integrated, or if you want separates and even more bottom end control, a Vitus RS-100 power amp & RL-101 pre.
Vitus Audio is made in Denmark in thier state of the art factory. Build quality is excellent. VA gear sounds rich, detailed, open and musical. The SIA-025 is also on the warm side & sounds pure and mellifluous (tube-like). But it also packs a wallop. This amp uses a large efficient 1.4kVa shielded, potted ’floating’ UI-core transformer & would be delivering about 30 watts pure Class A and over 150 watts Class A/B into your 95db Ulysses speakers. Vitus measure power in "true RMS" which is a much tougher measurement, so don’t dismiss the power specs. I was driving a pair of Magico S5’s (88db, 4 ohms with a 2.4ohm dip) with an SIA-025 in a medium size room without an issue.
I would think either option would be a nice upgrade over your Simaudio gear & have good synergy with the rest of your system.
