I think your post is somewhat pointless.. and I don't mean that in a mean way :-)
Things are happening at such a rate of progress that whatever recommendations I would make today will most likely be useless in 2-3 years or whenever you decide to change things around.. and I hate to say this but your Squeezebox products are effectively dead, since Logitech no longer makes them or really supports them much either :-(
But if it was today that you were going to change things then there's a few items to consider:
Bluesound.. It's a new player and it's about where Sonos was 10 years ago.. a few teething pains but it looks very nice and the reviews have been excellent.
Sonos, is great, best interface but no support for HiRes, and there probably never will be..
Sonore, the Sonic Orbiter or Rendu, would be a replacement for the transporter. And best thing is they run off LMS so it wouldn't need much reconfiguring
Auralic, has the new ARIES units coming out in May.. these promise to be amazing..
Sim Audio has the Mind.. lot's of good feedback on that.
Linn.. but they don't have any simple units for multi- room applications
Lumin.. but same as Linn..
