Need advice, good budget Integrated and CD player

Hi Everyone. I have recetly saved afriend from buying a bose stereo and he is now looking for a budget integrated amp and a cd player. He will be using them to power Paradigm studio bookshelves. A Small active sub will also be added to round out the bottom end.
Any good ideas?
Budget is around $1000-1500us and new or used does not matter. Due to his price range, I would like to get used gear for the best "bag for his buck".

I think, for new stuff, we will start looking at cambridge audio....I am not really sure, and hence I put the Question to you.
Cheers
S

I have had good results with my Audio Aero Prima Integrated. It has a tubed pre section coupled with a mosfet amplfier . They are $600 - $700 used . I have heard a few other integrateds (well respected) costing much more that did not sound as good, all on the same speakers .
Synergy is quite important though . YMMV
