First off, I'm not sure what I'm looking for exists.
So here's the setup
PC setup using a Soundblaster X3 External DAC/Soundcard sending discrete 5.1/7.1 into the multichannel input of a Yamaha RX-V667 via 3 3.5mm to RCA interconnects.
I have Focal Aria 906's Front and Rear, an Aria CC900 Center, and a REL T/9i hooked up via high level, and also using the .1 LFE channel.
What id like to do is give the speakers more power, and downsize a little bit in the equipment on my desk. The receiver is a bit large, and don't really have another place to put it. Also I don't need any video output since i use the displayport from the pc to my monitor.
What would be ideal is an integrated amp that supports 5.1 or ideally 7.1 channel analog input, or something of the like.
This is mainly for music/gaming and maybe some light netflix/plex streaming.
The Parasound Halo P7 looked like a great option, but needs an amp as well. And running directly to a 5 or 7 channel amp would work except for not having LFE.
any help or advice is appreciated.
