Which processor? Linn, Rotel, Outlaw, Meridian?
Hands down...Meridian. Granted the 568 is a older model, but the competition is no match for even the older Meridian. Trifield is still an eye opener, even compared to the newer formats that are coming out. Plus...play your cards right, you can fi... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Tim...thanks for the very thorough breakdown of your system. Looks like you've dropped a nice penny into it. Hows the performance?

Any other contenders...don't be shy now! :) 
Do you know of small speakers that sound ''BIG'' ?
Ok...Ozz, now that you've accomplished the instruction part, lets start adding 2+2 to get 4. " No Specs"In case you missed it, there are graphs on the flyer! From top left working counterclockwise, we have the "wave flow" graph (another version of...

Oz....did you click on the picture before you exited out? Guess not! Click on the pic under the loudspeaker tab and the printable information will come up. Theres a little more information you forgot to investigation before counting them out! But ...

Ozz - Please excuse the link error. It didn't seem to be a problem for others. Sorry to keep you waiting in such anticipation. www.roarkdouglas.com, loudspeaker tab.

What if I told you you could get a compact 3-way bookshelf that will blow you mind to Jello, and it'll wont even cost you half of the price your looking at for other speakers. And we're talking new out the box, +/- 1.5 db for under 1K per pair.Che... 
She's on to me
Question...Does anyone think the "sneek" purchases and post-purchase discoveries by wives has anything to do with why there are far more men in the hobby than women?Don't forget now! You'll get tired of sleeping on the sofa really quick. :) 
Audio Debt?
If you spend more time working to pay off you system, instead of enjoying your system...you've gone entirely too far. 
System building, again
Not that it matters much, but this is what I love about MC vs. other formats. Sound isn't priority #1, its the accurate reproduction of the media content. Any way, enough of my babbling...please carry on. 
Looking for exceptional monitors for $2000 max
If you wanna go active, IMO, check out Blue Sky Pro Media or Sky System Ones. Both are below your limit, I believe. Both are unbelievable for the price. Very few even come close!!!Going passive, check out the links below:http://www.roarkdouglas.co... 
Outlaw 990 vs B & K Reference 50
I think the easiest and most effective way for you to decide is to audition. Advice from Goners and tech papers are great but nothing beats a good test drive. Of course, if budget is the underlying issue here, then go with what works for your budg...

Wow...I must be doing something wrong here. I would've never thought $14k to spend on audio gear is considered "limited" funds. 
ADVICE Please: Best Processor under $3K?
I'll take Tag McLaren for 800. :)IMO, I would take 6 and 3 in that order. However, I would definately consider Meridian to go to the top as well. The 568 is a smokin component. 
Buildling a Frankenstein HT system....
I agree with Flrn about the mix-match speaker thing. If at all possible, its always better to work with matching speakers. However, the 2.1 theory is very questionable. I would much rather spend a little more money and do things the right way the ...
