Budget power amp suggestions

Hi all. I need a stop-gap setup to drive my shahinian super Elfs. I realised my headphone amp (lehmann linear) actually doubles as a reasonable pre - so any recommendations please for a good, cheap, power amp to look out for second hand?

Lehmann Stamp would be an ideal match but seem rare (& not cheap), are there any sleepers out there that go for up to £150ish? Alternatively i’d be tempted to try a croft 7 (much more pricey but presumably holds resale value) - or do they need a croft pre to get the best out of them? Would something like https://www.gumtree.com/p/amplifier...fier-great-warm-sound-5-star-rated/1295705731 do a good job? Thanks for any suggestions.
 
If the budget is flexible then personally I'd be having a very long hard look at this:

Perhaps a home trial on deposit type arrangement could be made?


PS. There is no such company as 'Goldman.'

There is however a company called 'Goldmund' who are doing some very interesting things with their 'diffusion line' products:

Yamaha do a couple, or did, bigt chunky 200 wpc beasts, if you want lots of clean power. They go cheap because of the name on the front.
