Worth it to buy cheap, but no audition integrated

Hi all, I have a pathetic system but I have begun upgrading. I just bought a pair of Axiom M22Ti's that are awesome, and next on the list is an integrated amp. I'm looking in the 550$ range and want your opinion. Is it worth it to buy used but higher quality material, then to actually go audition new products?
The reason I ask is that there are many amps that I have found to like online, but only from reviews, etc... Specifically there are some great deals on the roksan Kandy integrated that I'm seriously considering. Anyone heard this integrated run?

I also need a CD player, but am not sure how much to spend in that area, would 300-400 be enough?
thanks!

My Suggestion:
Pioneer Elite PD 65-Ask for date code on the rear of the player.I wouldn't buy one that is too old.

Musical Fidelity A3 Integrated-I love this amp and have compared it directly to McCormack.Close enough to prevent me from spending the extra money.

Also Kimber 4tc/pbj cables
