I'm in the market for a pair of CRS+'s and I'm curious about what to amp them with. I've got a pair of CRS+ V2's (SL2k tweeters, pin-paddle SDA cable) already, but for a second pair (CRS or CRS+, any version) I'm going to need another amp (be it power/preamp, integrated, or receiver) basically on the cheap. Listening levels are relatively low; 50W per channel sustained would be about the limit of what I'd be able to run these in a small apartment. I'm not so much an audio enthusiast as I'm a computer enthusiast, so I don't know what I'd be looking at for amplifiers. Source varies; I'm going to buy an Audio-GD Compass headphone amp/external DAC/preamp or something to the same effect when I can afford it. A power-amp would cut it, but I've not got a clue what is out there vintage or otherwise. I'm going to be clear now and say that I prefer vintage; much of my music is older than I am and I expect the same out of my gear.

I'm looking for basically entry-level. What I will be getting probably won't be in use (or constant use at least) for several months. I'm holding off on the speakers for a bit, though I'm nearly heart-set on CRS+'s. So, ideas? Suggestions?
