Older or Modern amp for older Speakers (NHT 3.3)


My tube amp currently puts out 60 watts. These NHT 3.3's are calling for more power.
I see (but never heard) amps from McCormack and Classe and others have been used with the NHT's. 

My question is to feed the speakers their power is there anything in the $1000 range new that can compete with some of these $1000 "old"/vintage amps ( McCormak DNA-1 or Classe)

The more I read about the McCormacks the more I like. But I have no chance to hear them ( or any other amps for that matter). I did hear the NHT's with the Bel Canto Evo 2 Gen ii. Sounded really nice. ( Made me buy the speakers).

I listen to Jazz and Rock mainly.

I've had great luck running Threshold amps. Presently using a 550/E. Wonderful amp
