Define inexpensive as you are mentioning a $500 player...
On closeout at Fry B&M but only 2.1. I do not think anyone makes a 3 channel unit with a player. Under $200 if you can find it.
Harman Kardon 2.1-Channel A/V Receiver with 3-D Blu-ray Disc Player Built-in BDS 277BQ/120-A1.
You can get a half height AVR from Marantz or Yamaha and pair it with the Oppo or other Blu-Ray player but you will pay a premium for the half height. $300-$500. Check Accessories for Less.
If you are willing to go full height you should be able to get a decent AVR for under $300 on sale especially if you are willing to settle for last year's model. You'll likely give up the ability to switch 4K video and Bluetooth.
Yamaha, Denon, Onkyo, Pioneer, pick your favorite.
Add a Sony Blu-ray for under $100 and you are good to go.
