Friend needs help

I have a close friend that wants to upgrade his stereo system.  He is old school and frugal.  Currently he has a Kenwood KA-501, which I bought in high school, many years ago, and gave to him after having it serviced.  He has Cerwin Vega speakers and B/W book shelves.  My question what would be a great integrated amp, with 3-5 inputs, a pre-out to add an amp down the road.  I am suggesting that he gets a WiiM Ultra streamer and get into the streaming game.  He is mostly a rock and roll guy.  He is leaving all of the decisions to me.

@dayglow - not sure I agree with that.  There are other links people have provided to gear.  I simply was showing the amp I am most interested in for my friend.  Not really looking for your respect, just trying to help my friend and as always I post here for all the great advise and opinions.

Give the guy a break. Simplify it. Get him an integrated Eversolo streamer.  They are super reliable and sound great.

All decided.  Advance Paris A Classic, Wiim Ultra and for fun suggested a Furman Elite Power conditioner.  Funny thing the power conditioner is twice the price of the streamer. I have the same conditioner and well worth the investment to keep all the gear safe

Thank you all!
