There's a Korneff 45 amp on the classifieds right now that would kick butt on those Edgarhorns. And it's in your price range too. If that ain't sweet enough for you, then I can't think of anything that would do it. Maybe a Wavelength 45 or a FI 2A3. Or maybe even a 300B, if you want a little more oooomph in the bottom end.

Take a listen to the Antique Sound Labs 1006 845 based SET, 22 watts. I'm using them in my office rig.
