I finally figured it out on the "system" side of things. So to answer the question: I'm running 2 systems. I have a surround for movies/tv/sports etc. and a 2 channel (with sub) for music.
The surround is very good for it's size/cost. A medium/entry level Marantz AV receiver, Buchardt S400 front, JBL center, and wireless Audioengine speakers for rear. I use a Sony 4K Blue Ray player for movies and occasional quick music track. . More than good.
The music is on a completely different track: the Luxman 590AX, Focal 1028Be, Oppo 93 DVD/CD player, Blue Note streamer, Nakamichi Dragon cassette player.
Nothing in the line would be considered weak, but I think the Focal's are putting a strain on the integrated amp. So, I'll start my "hunting."
