Rotel makes good stuff that goes in that range too. Please do not apologize re funds. Don't spend any real $$$$ on wire. Look at a few posts on DIY re cable. If you are $$$$ short for a time DIY will get you into GREAT sound for really very modest $$$. This goes for amps and speakers too.
You do not have to spend a lot, you just have to know a little.

Sincerely, I remain
