Hi,
Those speakers are all pretty efficient and you could drive most of them with a transistor radio...just kidding. Since you don't need much power you have many choices, including single ended amps. These are a bit out of your price range, but this guy is a magnavox fanatic and I have always kept an eye on his site with the idea of building one of his amps for a second system. If you have $500-$700 to spend you can get something new and tested from him that would sound very good indeed I am sure:http://members.tripod.com/~gabevee/index.html
Anyway, the site is interesting reading.
Of course, needing only 5-10 watts per channel you have many choices! Lots of vintage amps can be had for under $500. Or you can go to lots of garage sales...
good luck,
don
