Picking an amplifier


I have the following speakers:
NHT 2.1 Front LR 200W @ 6ohms
NHT AC1 Center 150W @ 8 ohms
NHT SW2 Subwoofer 200W @ 8 ohms
The rear speakers are inconsequential (and boxed up) they might come out to play when I move to bigger digs.
I’ve been using NHTs 214s and 216s, (think lightbulbs) but the market is drying up. I remain unconvinced they are worth the shipping & costs to repair.
My (current) short list of replacement amps:
Outlaw Audio model 770 7 (7 channels)
Bryston 9B ST (5 channels) (2 years left on warranty)
Parasound 5125 (5 channels)
The budget is $1000, I have located sources for all three at or below $1000.
Any/all discussion of suitability, repair outlook, and peanut shells welcome. From a listening perspective, I've been fine with the NADs, but am priced out of the newer models. Nuts, I might even repair the NADs if I find the right person with the skills & tools.

I knew that. Thanks. I'm negotiating on the Yamaha. Trying to get him down from $950. The Essence STX II arrived today. Didn't get the daughterboard.

this one for $872?

I think the Yamaha will be really nice for you, if you get it.   I bought both my Krell processor and Oppo player from TMR Audio.  They are excellent for service/support of customers.

Yeah, don't bother with the daughter card.  It's just more DACs and analog outputs that you don't need.

He's got it on Ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-CX-A5000-11-2-Channel-Preamplifier-Processor-Black/332420837035?hash...
Its the same one. 
After a couple exchanges, I offered him $825 via Ebay and he didn't get back to me. I might have offended him. Hoping he just left for the day. The market is $600-$850. 
I can always color up the system with the alternate STX chips. 
I visited the Audio Ect where I bought the original stuff. They moved to the Mercedes & BMW neighborhood and tacked a zero onto their inventory. Apparently computers keep getting cheaper and audio equipment keeps getting more expensive. 
Naw, the original PCI interface has more than enough bandwidth to support audio.  I have no problems doing 24/192 stereo audio through my old Xonar Essence PCI card.  PCI-Express is just overkill and is likely to introduce jitter issues.  The crystal clocks and power supply have more to do with audio quality than evolutions in PCI Express.  PCI 4.0 will have benefits on graphics cards and stuff like multi-disk RAID controllers where I/O is critical.
