$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 + ???

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.
