If you could stretch a bit here’s a Lampi Big7 that’d likely do what you’re looking for. Best of luck.

Sorry to take so long to respond to your question, Tyray--just haven't checked in here for a while. In fact, I had no trouble at all with the I2s HDMI connection between the Pontus and the ET3. Just plugged it in with a Pangea Audio HDMI cable I happened to have on hand, and everything worked seamlessly. |
@tyray The voo doo is real. I just got done listening to the RAL I2s after a solid weeks + of nonstop burn in. It's quite a ride as it breaks in but man the rig is sounding so "right" now. It replaced a Tubulus Argentus wich was good but the RAL is better. |
