Integrated Amplifier Recommendations Needed


I have a pair of JBL L112 speakers in excellent condition, but I would like an integrated amplifier to drive them. The JBLs are fairly efficient, 89 dB @ 1 W/1 M, and the maximum recommended amplifier power is 300 watts. My room is 20X25 with 10-foot ceilings.  

100 wpc would be adequate; what do you all recommend?  I want to stay under $2000, and used equipment is fine.

I listen to 80% jazz, from small groups to big bands.  The rest mixes classical, classic rock, Steely Dan, etc.  

Best,

Thank you!

I just updated it too.

I have been thinking about other components and the amplifier list is a great idea. The problem is, amplifiers are a much harder "taxonomy" for me, mainly because I am ignorant. I am also in the vintage/used world, I would think people tend to buy used amps more than used speakers and that is harder catalogue.

On the other hand, there are less amplifiers overall (I think) so maybe it would be a smaller project.  I will think about it for sure. 

where are you located?

finding used you can pick up let's you check it out and save cost and risk of shipping.

budget?

you say integrated, thus you do not have a preamp you love, correct?

tubes or SS?
