Suggest some integrateds for my Monitor Audio Silver 2

I'm currently running new Silver 2 speakers on an old Creek 4140S2, rated at 30 Watts per channel. Passable, but I think these can do better with more power. About 16 x20 listening space, hardwood floors.  I'm thinking maybe Rotel, Arcam, Yamaha?.... Open to recommendations. I'm thinking 75-100W per side should be plenty? I don't listen Uber loud. CD is only source. Thank you.

Jerry is a really nice guy, I’ve known him for over 40 years ( and haven’t seen him in probably 35 😀 since moving to Chicago) but I find His pricing a tad on the pricey side for what I’m looking for, but I appreciate the tip.

The mag reviews seem to echo this with a thumbs up

I will second the rogue audio sphinx. It’s a little more than you’ve looking to spend (new) but if you can swing it I think you would be happy with it.  Also, it is up for auction.
