I have a a system of Emotiva separates. My speakers are Studio-20 bookshelves.
My sources are a CDP and a SONOs Connect.

I want to simplify my setup and get an integrated with digital inputs for my sources.
Are Marantz, Onkyo, and Yamaha offerings audiophile quality?
I'd like to spend < $1000 for a good integrated.

I am moving this year so I don't want to change speakers until after I'm settled.

I see no difference in sound quality between an AVR vs Integrated Amp + DAC.

Just get something like the Denon 4xxx series on sale for about $800 (MSRP $1500) or the Denon 3xxx series on sale for about $500 (MSRP $1000).

You will probably get more power, less distortion, better SNR and Crosstalk with these Denon AVR vs similar price Integrated amps.

I found a good deal on a Nuprime IDA so I'm going with that.
