Tube Amp Around $1000


I am going to buy a tube amp for my system and am thinking of a TAD-60. I have Usher 520 speakers, a CAT SL1 MKII preamp and a Resolution Audio Opus 21 CD player. I will be updating the speakers some time next year. Anyone have an opinion on the TAD-60 or other suggestions? I want to keep the price around $1000 new or used.

Eagleman, I am leaning that way. I have read the reviews and it seems like a good deal for the amp. I have read some good things about the MV55 also. I am considering Maggie 1.6s in the future and don't know if the CJ will be enough power.
I have read that the CJ MV-55 has the classic tube sound, which I would like. Does the TAD-60 have some of that or is it more like the SS sound?
