Look at the Adcom 535. What kind of speakers do you have?

x2 on that suggestion.
If you don't mind buying used equipment, you can find something a lot better than the one you posted.
edit-
Here's a used Adcom GFA-5300 on Audiogon for 125+shipping. A little over the price range you named...but would be well worth the extra money.

You may take a look at this one as well...
The Adcom is a better amp, but for $59.99 probably a good deal for the money.

Hi. Here is a link to a Adcom 535. The few extra bucks you would have to shell out for it will be worth it in the long run if you cannot find one a little cheaper or locally. http://cgi.ebay.com/ADCOM-GFA-535-Power-Amplifier-Amp_W0QQitemZ290293922601QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item290293922601&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1458%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
The 535 is a great little amp for the money. Currently mine is powering my center channel and it works great. Another good bang for the buck amp that can be had sometimes in the $100.00 price range is the NAD 2400pe THX amp. Rated at 100wpc it will drive speakers rated at 4 ohms with power to spare. Nad is built like a tank just like Adcom and will last for a very long time. Good luck in your search.
