SS Amp suggestions

I am considering the acquisition of another amp.  I am currently alternating between an older Krell (KSA 250) and a Coda S100 to power the Duntech Princess or the MBL 111F.  Either amp is fed by an AR Ref 3 using balanced interconnects.  This may be something I pursue; I am looking for "food for thought".  I was thinking of a newer model Krell (FPB 600), the Halcro DM38, Plinius, or something from T+A..?  I prefer Class A and am not interested in Class D amplification (at all), or anything integrated.  The price needs to stay under $12K.  Suggestions Please. 

Thank you in advance,
Jose

Hmm, with those speakers you are going to need some serious power.
I, too, am looking at a pair of MBL 111's, never listened to the Duntech, but they look nice.
Pass Labs would be my first choice.
On a budget, maybe McCormack DNA-1's with SMc Audio upgrades.

I am recently impressed by Bakoon SS amps. I think that they are class A and within your price range.

This Clayton Audio S2000 would well be worth a look...
