Direct Outputs and Record outputs
The record out is not controlled by the volume control. 
Any news about new DD/DTS upgrade on HDDVD?
Probably not but, you can always you the multi-channel inputs. 
Is Direct Drive Really Better?
CDs actually spin the same direction as LPs they just play from the inside out. But when you think about it, wouldn't it have been better if records played from the inside out? It would make a tonearm lift unneeded. The arm would just fall off the... 
I'm Looking for some great electronic music
Tangerine Dream/Stratosfear and many of their albums from that era. Also, Ashra/New Age of Earth and Blackouts. Don't forget Klaus Schulze. Oh yeah, I love Afocelt also but I think they are more Techno with Celtic overtones. 
I Didn't Do My Homework
You can get balancing transformers from Jensen. These are the same type used by Rowland Research, Audio Research and other high end companies.

Is Direct Drive Really Better?
I have to admit I love my Technics SP-10MKIII. I also have a Linn LP12, Micro Seiki 1500FVG, Teac TN400, Dual CS5000, Empire and a few others laying about. I use the Technics most but the Micro is great too.

X-10 V3 and multiple digital sources
You can't use the digital inputs for SACD and DVDA anyway if that's what you're asking? 
Many questions about HT pass-through options
The sound may not matter when watching a movie but may when watching a concert DVD. 
Advice on aging Krell CD player
Sounds more like the laser. It is probably a Phillips transport which are hard to get parts for. You could try cleaning the laser by removing the cover and opening the tray and using a Q tip with a cleaning solution such as tape head cleaner. 
Many questions about HT pass-through options
The above will work but you do have two volume controls in line and will degrade the sound. It is better to have an HT pass-thru. 
Buy DVDR now or let standards/technology settle?
Of course nobody wants to watch TV on a computer unless it is connected to a large screen TV. Or burn the shows to DVDRW and erase them later. You can play them in a regular DVD player.
