Move From AVR to Integrated?


I know this topic gets thrown around a lot, but I recently bought a pair of Ascend Acoustic Sierra 1s I love and a Hsu VTF2 MK5 subwoofer. Right now, I'm using a Denon AVR-X2600H to power them. 

I hear a lot of chatter that I'm not getting the most out of my speakers using the AVR. The drawback is my room is not treated, and I like having the bass management. 

It seems difficult to find an integrated with 100wpc+, ability to stream things like Tidal, that also has ability to at least EQ the low bass, and have the ability to connect to digital sources like a PS4/5. I do like the idea of a better built power source, and I will never go past 2.1 or 2.2. Most of what I do is music and TV. 

Any suggestions? Ideally I'd like to stay under 1200.

The Marantz PM7000N is another integrated at your price point. A bit lower powered than the 100 wpc but it has a bevy of features and has been well-reviewed. Best of luck.
I would stick to a integrated amplifier with sub out. Purchase a budget outboard streamer which could be upgraded later.

 
The Outlaw 2160 is a great option. Full function.

Audio Advisor has the NuPrime IDA-8 demo for ~$850. Several digital inputs, single analog.
@mesch Seems like the Outlaw is well regarded. If I choose to use Dirac, I imagine a mini DSP unit would get connected via pre out, then back in at main in? 


@mesch Is there a reason why one would recommend integrated vs the separate route? Just ease of use and compatibility?
