    In that price range, you need to go used to get something that's a step up from the receiver internal amp.
    Check out the ROTEL RB-985 or the Parasound HCA-1205A. I've had the Parasound before and it was a good amp.

    I have an Adcom GFA-6000 that works well with my LSi's. There's a few on Ebay at your price range.

    You should also check out Audiogon, some other names to look for are B&K, Marantz, NAD, Sherwood. If possible get one with a 12v trigger as it will make your setup easier to use.
