Hi ScottYes it can be done and you will have flexibility with what you intend. I suggest you look at Meridian as one of the few DACs which reproduced music & HT nicely. You might get some pointers as to which model by looking at posts on

There are some excellent used units available. Maybe other inmates can give specific recommendations. If you have a deep enough pocket the Meridian 561, 568 and 861 are the best choices as they can be upgraded to handle Pro Logic II - great for music & older movies.You do not indicate if you wish to have vinyl as well as digital. If you do there is a post on that board from me ("Tassie Devil") which days how it is done here.
Your dilemma is appreciated. There is not much choice if you want both music and HT. General opinion is that recent Lexicon DACs were not good in the music dept but I do not know about their latest incarnations.
Good hunting
