I recently suggested the following setup for a friend:
Speakers - Tekton M-Lores (Rlwainwright has suggested the same)
Integrated amp - Marantz PM 6004($599) or PM8004 ($999)
CD Player - Marantz SA 8004
Cables - Signal Cable
The Marantz CDP will allow you to use MP3 players using it's USB input on front and also computer audio using the digital inputs on it's back. And if you buy the cDP and amp from the same dealer, they will give you a good discount.
This should give you an awesome setup with great music for a long time.
