Bargain Basement, Giant Killing DACs for PC Audio
Not sure what you classify as a "giant killer", but as a Rega dealer, I have to say that the new $995 Rega DAC is outstanding for it's price. 
Bookshelf speaker for Stingray II?
With the Joseph 7xl's being only 15" high, would they be small enough to stand up right in the wall unit?While not optimal (as you have stated previously) I still think you would be ok if you have no choice but to place on their sides. 
Bookshelf speaker for Stingray II?
As a Manley and Joseph Audio dealer, I can tell you that Joseph Audio RM7xl's work great with the Stingray. These are also front ported, so should work ok in your wall unit.

DAC new or used under 2.5K advice

Looking for experiences with Rega Fono pre-amps
I have been very pleased the Rega Fonos that I've sold (I'm a Rega dealer). They work/sound amazingly good for the price, especially with Rega cartridges.With that said, what cartridge/table are you using with this?

Great Monitors – Joseph Audio Pulsar ?
I would not worry to much about "lower" resale value. As a Joseph dealer I try to keep up with the going rates of their products used. I would say that JA is no worse (or better) then most other speakers in it's price range.And trust me, the Pulsa...
