John, I would suggest that you look at Music Reference. While the New RM-200 MK II is above your upper limit, a used RM9 (100Watts/chnl) or RM10 (35 watts/chnl) might do the trick nicely. I am driving a pair of ProAc Response 3s with an RM-9 and very happy - I have heard the same amp drive Response 2 with excellent results. The RM 10 is a smaller amp, but could be bridged to provide 2 70 watt mono-blocks...
I might recommend that you hook the ProAcs up the the 4 ohm taps if using the amps as stereo, and the 8 ohm taps if bridged.
The Music Reference amps have excellent tube life, and the RM-9 can be used with EL-34, 6550, KT-77 or KT-88 tubes - there is a bias adj for each channel.
Happy listening
