I think the new Blue Circle amps can look quite elegant:

New System for the House
I want to put together a small system for our living room. The room is only 20' x 14' and has wood floors, ceiling and walls. It's real wood (3/4" tongue and groove pine) and is stained not painted. The ceilings are 8.5' high. I've got a 32" LCD currently.
I'd like audiogoner's input on an integrated amp and two small speakers.
On the amp I need at least 2 inputs and would like remote volume control. Looks are important in that this will be a hard sell for my wife.
On the speaker side, I like the Totem Rainmakers if that gives an idea of size and response, I'm not opposed to adding sub, if there's a good amp that'll drive it without additional electronic hardware.
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, and I want to keep the whold shebang under 2 grand. Sounds easy enough, eh?
