I have to ask, what do you guys do for a living that allows this level of disposable income for equipment? Its so far out of my playing field I cannot comprehend having that kind of budget.

Parasound Halo Hint6 doesn't include a streamer or HDMI input, and is a little below your requested power range.  However, it does include a lot of things you didn't mention, but might find useful.  It's also $3999 new, which leaves you a bit of cash for a streamer.

Yes I agree I used Macintosh MA 12000 or a used MA9000 

350 what's per channel for the 12000, 300 Watts for the MA 9000

Both have equalizers and both have a nice warm sound 

And sound amazing. 

The build quality is great. 

Built-in dac, ( mine is upgraded to the D2)  

I only used mine for 12 to 14 months.  ( Willing to sell).

You can't go wrong with McIntosh. 

Hit me up.

I'll send you photos 😁
