You could probably use more power so you might want to consider having a defunct older 2 (100 WPC) or 4 (200 WPC) tubes per channel kt88/6550 amp with good transformers rebuilt with hexfreds and modern caps and have the amp stuffed with KT120s and biased appropriately.
There are old VTL Melos MFA Manley ASL (e.g. Hurricane) that can be had at a low price and rebuilt into great amps. ARC TRL CJ and VAC will set you back more.
There are the Jolida Envoy/3000 that are very interesting and relatively inexpensive and will have a somewhat similar tone but with more dynamics and deeper bass.
