Two-channel is inferior to multi-channel, no?
Well, all other things being equal, two-channel is certainly cheaper and more compact than multichannel. ;-)Kal 
Connecting a subwoofer.....
There is, in theory, no difference between pre-outs and line-outs, so I cannot understand your question. You need to use a volume-controlled output and, if you are using a stereo source, you need to combine the two channels for the sub. Many subs ...

HDCD VS SACD
Am I sure of what? That there are few HDCD discs and that there are none being issued these days? Yup. There never were many but I do not have a count. In my own collection, they probably number a few dozen. OTOH, I have thousands of SACDs and I a... 
HDCD VS SACD
One additional point. Even though SACD is fading, there are many more recordings available now and still being released than there were on HDCD.Kal

Meridian 861 v4 or classe 800 for movies??

Natural Acoustics sound panels
Wow. Those are impressive and surprisingly consistent values. Price is good, too. I have contacted them for more information. Thanks.Kal 
Meridian 861 v4 or classe 800 for movies??
They are all great options. I have the 83/621/861 system now and the Classe SSP just arrived. ADA makes great stuff, too. To choose, you should consider other things such as additional sources, DSP capabilities, roomEQ, etc.Kal

Do they offer any controlled measurements of the absorption characteristics of the products?Kal
