If you are looking to buy new I would recommend the Outlaw RR2160 integrated amp/reciever. I had been searching for an easy to use integrated for my wife to stream digital files in our living room used mostly for background music. After auditioning a few amps from Hegel and Peachtree, I settled on the Outlaw driving a pair of Proac Studio 3’s.
For the $799 price tag, it has a lot going for it including bass management, multiple digital and analog connections, DLNA streaming and it sounds fantastic.
With your budget of 2k, I would think a used pair of Kef ls50’s or the recommended Ryan r610’s (I have owned these and they are great) and the Outlaw would make a fine system and you may have a little bit of money left over for some decent stands and cabling.
One thing I did that made a nice improvement was replace the stock power cord with a Zu Mission and the amp/preamp jumpers with Kimber PBJ’s.
Best of luck with your search and enjoy your new system!
