Inexpensive Amp for KEF 107s?

I posted earlier about my (mom's) Nakamichi PA-7 woes. We are looking at getting it repaired. In the meanwhile, I'm interested in hearing of some amps that could adequately power the KEF 107 speakers (which the PA-7 has powered for the past 25 years). Budget is no more than $500.
As always, your suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the information. No, there is no KUBE, although I don't understand why one would need a subwoofer with these speakers as each one contains a pair of 10 inch woofers and I've certainly never felt they were lacking for bass. Even moderately turned up, you can feel the bass tugging at the back of your pants legs...
Here's an image of the setup we have: http://d1xw7fnq30zy05.cloudfront.net/uploads/image/image/592505/scaled_003.JPG.

How good/bad is the Crown XLS1000? It's been recommended to me in another forum...
