Need help with audio system setup

recently moved into a new home where the builder has provided a in-wall speaker setup in my living room, bedroom and porch, so 3 sets of speakers with the audio ports for all 3 in my living room space. i’m looking to get recommendations or any website forums where people can help me with the following things 1. Choosing a Multiroom amplifier for the 3 pairs of speakers so that I can control each pair of speakers individually and play music using Bluetooth/Airplay from my phone on Spotify/Youtube. 2. Finding a Dolby Atmos/DTS Soundbar that can connect to this amplifier and control the sound setup for movies/music/gameplay. my budget for both devices is around $3k. any recommendations where i can get some help?

Simple crown amp will do if you don’t need it for home theater and just want stereo..

Get a Denon receiver

Rofl. Bluetooth, airplay, and serious sound do not mix.

Option 1 can be done using multi zone receiver ( that itself might eat your budget) Option 2 won’t work. You can’t control a soundbar with an amp. Soundbar is separate device which needs input signal from players/devices/services.
