Based on your current system, IMHO, I would get a center channel compatible with your planars (maggie?); a 3 channel power amp with similar characteristics similar to the levinson (parasound, classe or Levinson if they make one) a cheap processer ( the Emotiva umc-1 is pretty good for $500 and you can "pass thru the signals from your 2 ch preamp thus keeping your 2 ch listening in tact. Then I would get the OPPO 95 or 105? for your surround sound player and use the analog ins to your processer (quality will be better than any costing $2-3K)
And of course , subwoofers. This would give you a great surround setup while still enjoying your 2 ch.
PS I have a surround sound using Apogee speakers with good electronics--stunning!
