I'll second Paraneer's suggestion of the Marantz PM8004. Preouts for the sub, MM phono and remote.
Agree with the CAP150, it may be getting older, but this is a solid design that has not been walked over. This is a solid audiophile product with good imaging, dynamics and power supply to power those ML.
I'll third the Marantz PM8004 suggestion. It has all the features you're looking for and sounds great. If you can stretch your budget a bit, or you can find a used model, the Rogue Sphinx is also highly recommended in the hybrid integrated category.
Given your needs, I agree with the PM8004 recommendations provided it will drive your speakers to the level you need in the room you are using. There is a great difference in sound between the Vincent Hybrid integrateds (warm, great soundstage) and the Classe SS ones (detailed to point of analytical in my opinion, tight bass). Both good products, however they emphasize the need to know what it is about the sound of ones system one prefers most.
Thanks for everyone's help and opinions.. I have come to a final conclusion.. Awhile in the making... Creek audio evolution 50a.
Found a decent deal a skoche over a grand...
Now looking at Pangea for some ac upgrades..
