$2000 Budget for a speaker + integrated amplifier

My friend is looking for a "hifi" set up for his bedroom, music only.

He limits his budget to $2000USD, and i need some inputs...

1. Gallo Audio Strada with NuForce icon 2?

2. Amphion Helium 410 with Nuforce icon2?

3. John Blue JB3 + ???

He'd be hard-pressed to beat Musical Fidelity A3.5 integrated and Totem The One speakers. Both used, both currently available for $2,045.00 before any bargaining.

hey guys, thanks for the all the suggestions!

I bought a pair of mark and daniel monitor + speakers for around $1100USD (good deal!) from a 'gon member.

Now I'm looking for some amps, probably the A3.5 as suggested..

I just did the same for well less then $2k.

Creek Evo for $825 new

EPOS ELS8 $295 used

Sony PS1 $10

Now getting a Rega, Pro-Ject, Thorens, or Music Hall table to complete the system.

Have you thought about going "vintage"? There's a Marantz 2285b for sale here on the 'gon. Perhaps a Pioneer SX-1250?

I'm with JohnnyR on the Rogue Cronus Tube integrated,
but go with a set of the Triangle Comete's. Coherent, linear, easy smaller room configuration, 91 dB, 50-20KhZ.
