Which atmos reciever/preamp / integrated has the best room correction built in and atmos?


Im more into 2 channel and not current on home theater processers,   l
ideally has preamp outs, ive got amps and speakers, just wanting a newer 4K atmos  refresh for my home theater.

Audiophile is fine, but I have another room for that.  This room has high 96db speakers 7.1 already installed  and 2 farily fast 18 subs already.  I will be adding 4 ceiling speakers for the atmos.  Im fine with 2 or more hdmi and i dont care about pass thru preamp for hifi,if that helps.

Im not very up to date on recievers, been looking at the marantz but wondering what else is out there.

Thankj   Room is 2000 cubic feet,   100 inch screen 13 wide by 23 deep room

budget 500-2500 for preamp/receiver/integrated   and mainly as a pre/ room calibration

Yes i have a hifi  room with all kinda of money in wires and hydras and power cords and cable elevators and yada yada yada, i dont want or need it in my theater, i want wow holly crap effects and clear sound and clear voices

im using dunlavy sc ivs for fronts which are tall towers,  need to find a center and the rest of the surrounds are 10 inch coaxials diy speakers.   have 2 dunlavy subs 12 inch behind listening couch and will have 2 18s up near the screen.

ive got a collection of old adcom,  and rotel amps for each surround channel and have odyssey mono amps for the LCR.  will probably get a pro grade amp for the subs right now they have about 1000 watts and could use more on the 18s.

also open to ideas on a center channel,   i think i want something with at least 2 10s in it. 

right now have it going as 5.1 with a small marantz reciever  with Land R feeding 2 amps , and its pretty good, i wanna get it closer to awesome.
will use 4 of the 10s in the ceiling for atmos same as sides and surround


it needs  dsp for sure... which model of mini dsp would be good for this setup? ,   .
