If you don't mind EL 84 tubes, the little Jolida 102B integrated is a great little amp with a very small footprint and at 19 watts per channel can drive a variety of small, inefficient if necessary, speakers. You won't need a preamp and can find them on Audiogon used for $300-$400. I am currently driving Spendor S 3/5s with one in a second system with great results.
