Tekton M-Lores $699.00
Shuguange S300I - $799.00 (SET amp that uses 300B Tube) No Remote. Its is being closed out and is on sale for a considerable discount. I think they originally sold for $1000.00 You can upgrade to the Shuguange Tube Set upgrade that Granyt Fidelity sells at a later time. You can buy the S300I directly from Shuguange or Grant Fidelity
You didn't mentioned if you wanted a digital or analogue source.
The best source I can think of in your price range is a used Oppo95, they are selling for $800.00 and under (one listed now for $775.00) Since the release of the Oppo 105, the 95's are starting to sell. Before that you didn't see many (any) used for sale.
You can play all CD formatts, and more and more great music is being released on SACD.
Clear Day Speaker cables would be the ones I would look into ($350.00 for shot gun). My Audio Cable Company has a palladium interconnect ($179.00) that I think are hard to beat for the money. I think that adds up to around $2,800.00. Also you may want consider a Primalua Proloug 2 integrated amp (They sell used for $800.00) instead of the S300I, Its a better build then the S300I. The advantage of the Shuguange is the 300B SET circuit would make those M-Lores sing .
