It would be helpful if someone would set up a web-page.If you use the Phillips transport, does it still playDVD's after it is modified? Would one still want to useit for DVD's? Can one plug a DVD player into the DAC6and will it decode DD and DTS? ... 
Amplifier Recommendation for B&W Nautilis 804
I also agree with wiggle --If you like B & W Speakers, consider upgrading tothe N803's or N802's. In my opinion, there is a bigjump in quality from the 804's to the 803's, especiallyin the depth and tightness of the bass, but also in theoveral... 
Is 3 CH with a HT pre/pro better than 2 Channel
If you feel your room is big enough for Revel Salons,I'm confused as to why you think it is too small fora 5.1 system. Personally, I think your room is bigenough for a 5.1 system. All your speakers don't haveto be as big as your Salons. It's all a...

Is buildiing a HT around the speakers a good start
Also, since your preference is 80% movies, check outthe Lexicon MC12b surround processor. The new version uses the 32 bit Sharc chips.

Need Input and Advise on Pre/Pro Please?
Proceed is being folded into Mark Levinson, whosay they will continue to offer and support the AVP2.If it the ability to have the AVP repaired -- Mark Levinsonand Madrigal -- the parent company of both brandsisn't going anywhere. 
EMM Labs DAC6 vs. latest version dCS
Tireguy --Did you order a transport with the DCC2? Can you plug the DAC 6 or DCC2 straight into youramps, or do you still need a pre-amp? If the price of the DAC6 and DCC2 are the same,but the DAC 6 has a lot of extras -- why purchasethe DCC2? Why... 
Speaker Decision Help--Please
Totally agree with derrill. Both the Revel F-30's andB & W 803's are great speakers, but the B & W issignificantly better than both the F-30 and the B & W804's. The F-30's are not as coherent as the 803'sand there is a huge drop-off fr...
