JVC XRCD versus SACD
The K2HD discs are great, but very expensive. I am amazed by the ones I have. I have the first three ELPs. I can't compare them directly to SACD because I don't have the same titles but you don't get surround with them which may not matter to you. 
Apple TV
It works well. 
Tube Pre/SS Amp versus SS Pre/Tube Amp
It works both ways. 
Moody Blues "Question of bal." CD or SACD vs Vinyl
M. Pinder has released some of his own stuff as well as his son. I haven't heard any of it. 
Moody Blues "Question of bal." CD or SACD vs Vinyl
I saw them this summer in Atlanta. They were good but I feel they are not what they once were. I really like Ray Thomas' replacemnt but still miss him being in the band. Legend of Mind is a fav. 
Seventh Sojourn - The Moody Blues
I have. It is the best version I believe. Justin Hayward was envolved with the remasters. I listened again to it today and it sounds great in stereo. The bonus tracks are exceptional. You should probably pick up an inexpensive universal player.

CD recorder?

CD recorder?
I use a Burnit Plus CDR-830 by HHB. I like it and it is a pro machine with balanced ins and outs. It allows you to add text to your CDs also. It even makes a good player. The Alesis is probably good to. 
Anyone permanently convert from tubes to SS?
I like both and have both. 
Should I bridge two Bryston 4BST Carver Amazing?
Depends on the speaker impedence. The Brystons probably won't drive a low impedence load while bridged. But it's definitely easy to try.

Kef 107 woofer refoaming question
I have refoamed speakers myself because I felt I could do a better job than most and I was right. It's not that hard to do, the hardest thing is removing the old adhesive. I have never done KEFs but it should be fairly straightforward. Just be sur... 
Should repaired equipment be stated in the ad??
It's always best to be honest about repairs.
