I'll ask my friend who just bought one of these. He's really happy with the headphone output - says it's better than most of the "headphone amplifiers" that he's got.

JBL 4411's or 4412's. If you listen to all classical or jazz then maybe something like OHM Walsh's.
An excellent integrated amplifier!
100 wpc, so you have many choices. Most of us would recommend vintage or newer speaker systems, not necessarily new. Best bang for your hard-earned dollar.
Infinity made some downright great speaker systems (but NOT the SM-series, ugh). I had a pair of the Qb, a 10-inch, 3-way with the excellent EMIT tweeter. If they had been the Q Jr, 12-inch, 3-way, I would still have them.
With your budget you could consider the Renaissance or Kappa models, but be aware that the top models are a bear to drive, and 100 wpc may not be enough.
Me? Well I like the Pioneer HPM-900 I have, and the succeeding model S-1010 is even better sounding. Oh, yeah, I would love a pair of the HPM-200, a rare model, and inefficient, so 100 wpc would only be good for moderate listening levels. (The HPM-900 are 92.5 dB/w/m and will shiver your timbers.)
With your budget, consider also Tannoy and IMF.
Hmmm, I should mention the Carver Amazing loudspeakers. Any of the Carver Amazings would do me, and I will say a pair would put an end to my speaker hunting. I remember listening to the first Carver Amazing, and yes it was!
Couple of years ago I met Toasted Almond out in Jersey, and heard his Amazing Platinums (IV, I think) and they were stunning. 4 12-inch subwoofers crossing over at 100 Hz to a full-range 60" ribbon.

Hi ZZBOG,ZZBOG said:
Alex mentioned that he is using Tannoy Sensys DC-1 with this amplifier - in his bedroom. He is very happy - "the sound is neutral and clean".
Not to mention that he got the pair for $600Aus - which is a bargain in every sense (cents
) of the word.
