Help from EAD owners on buying decision

I need some help on a purchasing decision for an EAD Ovation Plus processor ($1200). I currently have a very good two channel setup and I am shopping for a new dac. Thinking of getting the EAD surround processor to use mostly for two channel listening. I like the idea of the built in volume control and I have heard the EAD dac section is very good.

My question is,just how good is the dac section of the Ovation Plus compared the newest two channel dacs around $1200 price mark. Would I be better off getting something like the Benchmark Dac1 or similar. Also if I do use the EAD for 5.1, is it possible to only use the two front and two rear speakers. I don't really have room for a center channel at the moment. My front speakers are medium sized floor standing type and it doesn't make sense to get some small lesser quality speaker for the center channel.

any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
