Best tube amp under 3000$?

I want to listen to a tube amp with my Hyperion 938 speakers.
what would be a good tube amp for audition under 3000$?
Primaluna Dialogue two? Dared V-845? Octave? Or anything else?
What is recommended?

I still would, but big tube amps aren't practical for me now. You could also consider big VTL mono's. Or Whatever Cary's fit your needs. But I don't think you can go wrong with C-J gear. Or, Cary.....
