[Anubis]

something that puts out ~100 WPC into 2 channels,
can be standalone or integrated.


i dont mind if its used.

[Anubis]

small is prob a bad term ill edit that out,

doesnt have to be tiny, actually thinking about it, normal sized is fine

CL or local garage sales? There tend to be good vintage gear for little money on garage sales or CL.

powering a pair of speakers, DIY, high 80s sensitivity bout 6 ohms resistance

Would 50 WPC work? The Amp-100 is on sale for $88:

Should have plenty of punch for your speakers.

Edit: Oops, missed the "gift" part

Edit 2: Any reason for wanting an amp and not a simple stereo receiver? Receivers are far more plentiful and cheaper.

 

[Anubis]

well they are my speakers im just gifting them to someone else

could go with a stereo receiver, which is kind what i meant by integrated in my post.

Pick up any used integrated amp from garage sale or CL and call it a day.

How about a refurb Denon?

I would generally suggest against used as a gift.

He is giving them used speakers too...

 

[NutBucket]

Used speakers are far less likely to have issues than a used receiver/amp.

I love used gear...but also because I have the ability to fix it

 

[sdifox]

Something like this?

I have no idea where you live so I picked Indianapolis

[Anubis]

speakers i made and used that im giving to my Dad, used is not as issue

In that case, I agree with picking something up from CL. Otherwise maybe a T-amp from hifimediy.com or 41hz.com? Plenty of power (your speakers aren't super-high sensitivity), easy for you to put together, affordable.
