Newbie building modest system ...what amp?

I have a adcom gtp 400, rega rp1 so far with kimber kables for interconnects and speaker cables.

In search of Vandersteen 2ce's.

Looking to spend in the 500-600 range used for a power amp. Then will be on the hunt for a used preamp after that.

Any input would be appreciated.

Look for a Forte Model 4, 5 or 6.

There is more than one way to skin a cat. I've heard some incredible systems that were built around the amplifier (SET) and not the speaker.
While I'm sure the majority of the people still start with the speakers and work backwards, there are other options that do work well too.
