I just went through this same exercise, including the carvernous room with high ceilings. We wanted to be able to provide music for gatherings and dinner parties as a background for the festivities. After much reading I decided on the NAD C 388 with the BluOs module. Here are a pair of reviews which describe the product:

I am very pleased with the performance of the unit so far using it to drive a pair of PSB Synchrony 2b speakers. We use the unit to stream Tidal and our local NPR station via bluetooth. I contacted NAD tech support inquiring about whether the unit's dac will fully unfold mqa and they responded that it will. It has a smooth but authoritative sound and will play larger speakers (Sopra 3s and B&W CM10s) without difficulty. It retails for about $2K.
