i need a power conditioner. monster?
I wouldn't use Monster. I have two that have been destroyed by overvoltage in a test. Both allowed over 250 volts to pass though the outputs before burning up. And still after crashing passed the overvoltage. 
Which Krell for driving subs?
The K2 would be an excellent choice. 
Jim Capaldi RIP.
Sad news indeed. 
McCormack DNA 500
I've always been impressed with McCormack amps and preamps. But have noy heard this one. 
Why not Minidiscs in the US?
The CDR has pretty much made the minidisc obsolete. Although minidisc should be great for car use because one doesn't have to deal with a case and being compressed makes it easier to listen to in noisy environments. 
Krell amps and Tube Preamps - enemies?
I have been reading that the VAC preamps use output transformers and really sound great. I would like to hear one with my Krell 600c but they are quite expensive if you want the top model.

This turntable has an air bearing and uses an air pump. Do not use it without the pump running. You will damage it. 
Amp/xover for Hartley 24 subwoofer
Marchand maybe? 
Dead Can Dance's Into the Labyrinth
Into the Labyrinth is the best one I think and the vinyl is supposed to be even better sounding. Spiritchaser is pretty good and the sound is very good. DCD is no longer together. There is a box set available with a DVD. 
How Screwed Am I?
We use Bose speakers without the sub lots of times in home theater installations. We just add a powered sub and use the crossover in the receiver. Bose even sells the sats without the sub. 
Need a Preamp Recommendation
A B&K PT-3 or PT-5 would make a great inexpensive preamp. There is a PT-3 for sale here for 250.00. It is a very warm sounding unit with remote contrl. 
How many of you made it to CES 05??
You wouldn't expect CES to advertise their competition would you Nrchy? 
Wife approval factor?
Why do the wives have to let any of you do anything?
