Have you looked at the Arcam-its all in one and fairly compact
Smallest Processor 7.1 H/T Only
I am looking to go back to 7.1 after buying a Yamaha sound bar …….we learn by our mistakes!
I went that route to try to minimize my equipment which consists of:
A T/T connected to a Esoteric Noise Reducer, connected to a Manley Steelhead. connected to a Merlin Bam, connected to a pair of monoblocks. connected to the speakers an not forgetting the Sub and the Manley power supply and the power center AND THAT’S JUST MY TWO CHANNEL!
I had an Integra DTR 0.1, a modded Denon 3910, a cable box HDMI splitter and a PJ for my H/T all this all sounded great but sooooo much gear sooooo many wires.
I only need a processor/amp to run my HT it seems that all the processors that do not need a separate amps have loads of inputs.
I just need 2 or 3 HDMI in and one HDMI out DTS/THX 7.1 any suggestions around the 2K “new” mark, and it needs to be small, the smaller the better
