Have you considered any of the Class-D Hypex Ncore or ICEpower monoblocks? Apparently these have come a long way with sound quality and handle more difficult loads well.
There are many good Class-D options to consider today ... some with huge price tags. I am considering the PS Audio Stellar M700. This seems to be getting rave reviews for sound quality, provides plenty of headroom, runs cool and can be had for a reasonable price.

For a Network Streamer + Preamp combo take a look at the new NAD c658 which is expected to ship this month. It has reasonable specs and features for a decent price.
