Recommend a used vintage receiver for under $100?

A friend wants to get his 13 year old daughter started with a no frills component system, and would like to find here or on eBay a decent sounding receiver or integrated amp for less than $100. Any usual suspects he should be looking for? Thanks.

Craigslist. Technics, Pioneer etc. Google it for user opinions.

Might be able to find a decent Toshiba SA-725/750 for around $100.

Rather than go the vintage route I would suggest something like this. It comes with a warranty and you don't have to worry about bad caps or noisy caps.

Someone just posted a really nice Nakamichi receiver here on Audiogon. I was a Nak dealer for many years and these are incredible sounding units.

I am not affiliated with this seller in any way. Just wanted to point out a nice piece of gear.
