+1 for the odysseys. The Candela hybrid pre is very smooth and detailed and a pair of Khartago Extreme monoblocks will still keep within your budget. Factory direct and extremely clean/ solid build have them playing way over their price point.
Also Klaus and the guys are incredibly accessible and helpful; great product support. Even if your not the 1st owner.
