In need of assistance: integrated amp selection


Hi, this is my first post although I have been "lurking" on audiogon for a while. My question is pretty simple, your advice is appreciated.
If you had $1500 or less to spend on an integrated amp and a CD player what would you buy? I would definitely consider used, and I have an open mind to just about any brand.
I just purchased a pair of Green Mountain Audio Europas, and plan to use Signal Cable IC's and cables. My room is approx. 15X18. My listening tastes are varied. The Europas are known to be efficient, so loads of power probably isn't necessary, although I would like plenty of reserve.
If you can't really recommend a certain model, a list of brands that you hold in high regard in this price range would be very helpful also. Thanks very much, jb3

I am a little bit new to legit. "hi-fi", although experienced in "mid-fi". I am also seriously considering the NAD c370 and the NAD 541i combo with the Europas. Can anyone here give me an objective assessment of the negatives associated with this combo vs. some of above suggestions? In other words, what would I gain with an Audio Refinement Complete / Jolida JD100A combo (for example) vs. the NAD combo for the extra $300-$500? Thanks, Jb3
