AV7005 (and likewise the SR7005). Also the SR5005.

The AV7005 has an 11.1 unbalanced pre-output, but that's a bit misleading since it has only an eight-channel DAC. You can configure all eleven speakers plus a sub, but you can only use seven speakers and the sub at any given time. Pick PLIIz, and the rear surrounds are unactive. Pick DSX, and you have to choose either Wide or Height - and either way, the rear surrounds are inactive.
