Hi-Res Monitor as a TV screen?
I am currently using this monitor with my system. You need a special card only in that it needs to have dual-link dvi and HDCP (to make the mpaa happy when watching HD). The only issue is that it has but one dvi port. I also have the 27"/24" and f...

Integrated Amps with HT bypass?
perreaux 200ip does, it has a direct amp connection to allow you to run directly into the amp section and control the volume with the receiver. I used it this way for a while. I went all 2 channel though with a classe pre-amp and a cheap $15 entec...

apature accusound silver ICs
At one point I had both, the MIT's (t2) were not as detailed as the apature cables. In my system (denon/klipsch) at the time, the apature's were to forward and the mit just right. I did end up keeping the apature digital cables though. 
Hi-Res Monitor as a TV screen?
The 24" dell gives you a little more flexability. The component inputs are 1080i compatible but it looks like you already have the 20". I have the 24" and do exactly what you are describing in addition to viewing hdtv cable feed. You can look at t...
