Looking for ic

Hi I'm looking to purchase some reasonably priced ic for my first hi fi. System consists of
 MARANTZ PM6006 
MARANTZ  CD6006 
MARANTZ  NA6005 
REGA P1
MONITOR AUDIO BRONZE 6

Any suggestions will be appreciated.  Also the recommended power for the speakers is from 40 to 150 watts the pm6006 outputs 45wpc is this enough to drive them or would I need to think about upgrading to a more powerful amp?
 Thank you
Dave

Blue Jeans LC-1 - best value out there, low capacitance, sound great.

At that price point, it’s a “just pick one of ‘em” exercise....BUT.....keep an eye on the RCA connectors ..... that’s what counts.

far too many of them in the budget IC price point strata are just crap build with cheap-as-you-find inferior materials and made even worse by crap construction soldering ( especially without proper high-end solder) , with result that audio performance is degraded and the RCA connectors won’t grip well either.

the MOGAMI, CANARE, BELDEN AND BLUE JEANS cohorts (among others) will all chime in as to there faves.
