Any good cheap integrated amps?

Does anyone have recommendations for an under-$300 integrated? I'm looking for a system for my office, driving 91db monitors with a NAK MB-10 CDP and CAL Gamma DAC. Thinking about Cambridge or Musical Fidelity, probably used. Suggestions greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

The discontinued Cambridge Audio A3i (60 watts) is the best of the recent Cambridge batch. Has phono (how's that for an office). I use one in my den/home office. There is a NAD 302 for $75 listed on Audiogon which should work well. It was European Amp of the year in its day.

It might be worth looking at some of the Rotel amps

Used Onkyo Integra Tuners are the best bang for your buck. The models from the mid 80s to early 90s can be found for as little as $50 used on eBay and other places.

i agree that the onkyo integras are great tunas regarding ability to pick-up stations, but their sound-quality isn't as good as the tunas i've mentioned, imho...

The Luxmans and Yamahas of late 70s/early 80s are still superb when compared to even current electronics. Might even find a Luxman L-105 for around $350. Good luck. Doug
