I would recommend sticking with amps that are well reviewed by Stereophile, The Absolute Sound, and HiFi+. These are highly respected professional audiophile reviews. I would start with their annual component summaries. You will find brands like Cayin, PrimaLuna, Audio Research, VAC, etc. well reviewed. I would not hesitate to buy used of one of these brands although I always buy new. Other off or "amazing sound" for a budget cost... only new.
There are too many risks buying off brands. Try to listen to a couple different brands... typically they will have a house sound, reproduced through their component lines. In the less expensive lines PrimaLuna, Cayin, and Rogue (I am personally not a fan of the the later). But all are well regarded.
Tube watts are much more powerful than solid state watts. So while 25 watts of solid state power are unlikely to sound good on your speakers 25 watts from a good tube amp will probably sound great. Assuming you’re not into headbanging music at hearing loosing volumes.
