HDMI connection
1. Whether the connection described will work depends on what that particular TV outputs. BTW, what are "Prog Out audio outputs?" This is not a standard term.2. Most do have analog outputs. Some stereo, only, and some multichannel.Kal 
anyone else hate locking RCAs?
I dislike RCAs and friction-fit connectors, in general. That is why I use balanced XLRs as much as possible. Clicks in positively. Push release and pull out. EZ.Kal 
mcintosh amps any one can explain impedance taps
It matches the output impedance to the speaker's impedance. In theory, such a match affords better performance and power transfer.Kal 
2 interconnects or y-cable?
Either way. BTW, despite labels, there's no such thing as a "dedicated subwoofer cable."Kal 
Using two center channel LCR speakers for stereo
To generalize, vertical MTMs will be OK. Kal 
Center channels: why only horizontal arrays?
Esthetics and assumed ignorance of acoustics (on the part of the typical user) are the only reasons. A conventional vertical array is superior and preferred by many who use three identical speakers for the front L/C/R.Kal 
Anybody tried Naim integrated with ATC speakers?
The NAD M3 seems like a nice idea.Kal 
Pre/Pro with
Yes but I was suggesting that you use it full range for stereo and leave the passive Verity crossover intact. That way, you also do not need another amp. Kal

#1: If the SMS EQs and passes up to 150Hz, this might work. I cannot recall if it does.#2: I would not invest in an old non-HDMI avr or processor today.#3: The Audyssey Balanced Processor will not do any bass management or crossovers. It will reco... 
Anybody tried Naim integrated with ATC speakers?
At 85dB/watt/meter, they are fairly insensitive and the 60wpc may not be an apt match, especially for large orchestral works unless your room is small and/or you listen at lower levels. Just a guess but these are two names that I would not usually...

Why are the Parsifals supposed to cross over so high? They are pretty full range speakers, afaik. Are you confusing the crossover to the bass modules with the crossover to a real sub? In general, the crossover to the sub for most processors is muc... 
old revels vs new revels
I definitely preferred the new ones in all ways except, as I wrote, for their more "ordinary" appearance. I have not heard the F52 for any useful time.Kal 
Bryston SP-2 & HDMI
Well, depending on the trade-in deal, you might consider alternative prepros that cost less.Kal 
old revels vs new revels
I reviewed both in the same room. Here are the links:http://stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/302/http://stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/308revel/FWIW.Kal
