Recommend an integrated amp, $800-$1000


I'm in the market for an integrated amp, new or used, with a budget of $800 - $1000. I'll be using it (for now) with a pair of Monitor Audio Silver 5i speakers, with the primary source being my Performance SE turntable. I'd like the option to add a sub at some point if needed. I listen mainly to 70's soft rock, jazz, and a little classical and country, all at low to moderate volumes in a converted bedroom. The only ones I've listed to at the dealers are a NAD C326BEE and a Peachtree Decco, and I preferred the NAD. What about Marantz PM8004 or a used Naim Nate 5i-2, or used Creek 50A? Other suggestions that would work well???

Thanks for the input, looks like lots of good choices in this price range. Need to do some research on some of the models mentioned and find some reviews.
In case there are any more suggestions, I forgot to mention that I will also be using a Phonomena II phono stage, so the integrated amp won't necessarily have to have a built in phono stage.
