The closest thing I know of so far is the Conrad-Johnson PV14L2. MSRP is more around $2,500.00 but I know where you can get a demo for $1,749.00 and if lucky possibly cheaper on Audiogon used. This unit has a processor and external loop, the sound quality is outstanding, far better than it's retailed at, a fully functional remote and plenty of inputs for a stereo preamp. The downside is no XLR, which at your price range you will NOT find a true balanced circuit anyway. There are very few true balanced circuit equipment available. Many offer XLR but it's just a gimmick without the actual balanced circuitry. The make believe XLR's are usually just taps off the RCA path. The C-J also would not have 2 outputs. Sorry if this was a waste but the PV14 meets most of your criteria.
