Why not separates?

Your budget would allow for good separates, allowing for more flexibility and probably better sound IMO.
I haven ot heard the newest generation of MArantz receivers, but own their SR-96, which was the flagship before DD. It was completely blown away by upgrading the amp section to a separate. Now I will soon replace the pre as well (and expect even bigger sonic gains).
Outlaw will have a pre/pro out soon, you can also find other units with all the bells & whistles for around $1k (or less if you consider used).
5 Channel amps are plentiful & very good in the $1k range.
Don;t forget to budget for another IC from pre to amp, but other than that cost I think separates afford you better quality for your $$$
