Chaltir. Raquel is spot re the mahlers, tube amps (most at least) need not apply.
I am sure your plinus will drive them fine. I have just bought cj prem350 after a quite long series of amp auditions. It would seem that amps with bi-polar output sections have the greater bass control.
have a look at the stereophile archives and Robert Deutsch does a comparison between Mahlers and Dunlavy SC-IV/A's.
The mahlers do need a little juice to come alive, but they can play as loud as you want to play them
5k sounds like a pretty good price considering you will also have full warranty.
have fun
