What’s the most badass $2k amp I can get?

My Thor are 87 db, so i know you will need power, maybe not pure class A, but certainly A/B. 
Here is my pick.
LM 501A, has 4 Big bad boys The KT120's,, and right at your  budget,,but you'll have to add in $350 ship fees.
She's a beaute,,if i did not have this jadis Defy7, i'd go for the LM 501A. as 1st choice.  
Offers only 1 AU, make ita  Philips SQ E80CC, for AX's go with Shugaung of any of your fav NOS, The 6SN, you have plenty of great choices, either NOS or Shugaung.

~~~100 watts~~, hefty beast at near 80 lbs. 
I think has a pre in, so you can employ your pre, or sell it. as the pre in the LM may top yours.

Ayre !!!!

Forget the meters and find a used Parasound 21 or 21+.

How big is your room? My thoughts goes to find a good active sub..

There’s a McCormack DNA-2 Deluxe available on EBay for $2100.  Puts out 300Wpc into 8 Ohms and 600Wpc into 4 Ohms.  Is that badass enough?  Oh, and it’s an awesome amp too.
