Looking to upgrade from receiver

Hi, I am looking to upgrade from an 11 yr old Onkyo 100W receiver. I currently have B&W DM604 speakers and would like to upgrade to seperates or an integrated amp. Looking to buy used with a budget of around $600. I mostly listen to Jazz and Classical. Listening room is rather small. It seems to me that an integrated would give me a bit more quality for my budget. All comments are appreciated.

Thanks,

$600 will get you a used Audio Refinement Complete integrated. List price new is $1099 with remote. It is made by YBA. It is similar in sound to the YBA Integre which lists for $2500.

The Complete is a great choice for Classical/Jazz.

A used Linn Majik would also be good in that price range.

What speakers do you use? And how efficient are they?

Gotta second the ARC Integrated for $700 used. Incredible value. I just paired one with an NAD 541i and some Spendors for a friend's first taste of high end, and boy is he smitten! My power cords didn't hurt, either. Have fun.
