Try a NAD C 320BEE integrated at $400 new (it's what I use for 2 channel HT) or a Denon DRA 395 ($400 new) 2 channel receiver. The DVD player would plug into any input (AUX or CD) and would work just fine. Be sure to set the simulated surround feature on your DVD player and your system will sound like you have the full set of HT speakers.
