Bi-amping or Mono Block amps
You'll get more power/headroom out of a monobloc than from a biamped pair whose individual outputs are 1/2. Better sound? That has more to do with the performance of the individual amps and their suitability to the speaker load than with their con... 
Anyone have a Dynaco Pas3 Balance Control???
Ouch! You are about 2 months too late. I dumped a whole bag load of old parts including one of these at a tag sale. Sorry.Kal 
Need help fast - Unbalanced Preamp to Balanced Amp
Almarg has completed my thoughts. The transformer-based ARTS and, especially, the Jensen units are superior on paper. I have no hand's-on experience with any of them as I have used only Cardas or Kubala-Sosna cable adapters when necessary.Kal 
Need help fast - Unbalanced Preamp to Balanced Amp
It is very likely that the two outputs are just two sets of connectors from the same amp, so combining them gets you nothing. OTOH, all you really need is a decent RCA-to-XLR cable. This does not do anything except enable the connection. Not ideal...

Why do you want/need to upgrade the cables? 
Can I output DolbyTrueHD/DTS HD in 2.1 on PS3/OPPO
You can output 2.1 from the Oppo via 3 analog RCAs if you use the bass management in the Oppo. If your amp is stereo only, however, it can only accept 2.0 via analog, regardless of the source.Kal 
Speaker Level and LFE Sub?
I really doubt there is a grounding problem here but I suggest you contact NAD since the M2 is the only strange item in this setup. None of the other items will be a problem.Kal 
Speaker Level and LFE Sub?
Can I ask why? Is the NAD in a separate 2 channel system or are you using it as the front L/R amp in a combined system? If the former, you do not need simultaneous use of line and speaker level inputs. If the latter, the LFE/sub output of the proc...

Velodyne SMS-1? 
dac for multiple sources
No audiophile DAC that I know of will handle the DD output of a cable box unless one arranges for it to output S/PDIF and that, of course, as stereo only. Otherwise, the Bryston should do the job well.Kal

R+D, TEF work with phase/delay, depending on what you mean.Kal 
Does delay really matter?
