Help with new amp to complement TH500 and use with Berg cabs

Hi all

I'm looking to buy a new amp. I have used the search function and have read a whole lot about a whole lot of amps. I've narrowed it down to a few, but maybe I'm forgetting something, or maybe you guys and gals think about something I didn't.

At the moment I'm considering the Aguilar AG700, the Genzler Magellan 800 or the Eich T900. This is purely based on what I found here on Talkbass. I already use an Aguilar TH500 which I pair with one or two cabinets (Bergantino AE210V and / or a Bergantino NXT112). I really like the TH500 + the AE210V, but I feel there might be a better head to pair with the NTX112 alone and with both the 112 and the 210 together. Most of the time I run the TH500 with the drive between completely off and 9 o'clock at the most, so, fairly clean.

Amps I used in the past which I liked were a Markbass F500 + Bergantino AE410 and an Eden Navigator pre with a PA power amp through an Eden stack. I don't use this combination anymore primarily because of the weight.

The main question is: is there anyone here who (liked the Markbass F500 and / or Eden stuff, likes the TH500 fairly clean, uses Bergantino cabs and) has experience with Berg cabs, coupled with the AG700, Magellan 800 or T900?
