Eggleston Andra power requirements
One of my friends has the Andra I's. He is running them with the FPB 600 Krell. It has good control over the bass. 
Amp: Integrated - Used; - Sub $750 Help :-
Audio Refeinement complete would be my choice. I have used this integrated with the B&W CDM 1NT's with great success. Granted, that is not the speaker you are using, but it is the same brand.I think your rotel receiver selection is a good one.... 
Best CDP under $500?..... Used market
Rotel 1072? 
Amplification for Monitor RS6
I have not heard the RS6, but spent time with the S2. They were driven by my audio refinement complete integrated, which I loved. So, you could try that, or maybe the small YBA integrated. 
Speaker Help Required
Before you move to a floor stander, I would suggest that your sub in not adding anything in the midrange. Double check the crossover setting on your sub. If you are at 80Hz or below, theory says it is omnidirectional, meaning you should not be abl... 
High-Def TVs?
As I understand it, the only TV's that will not work after the 17th are ones that have no coax cable input on them. If your TV has a coax input, you should be fine. 
Music Hall CD-25.2 VS Rega Apollo VS Rotel 1072???
I've owned the Rotel 6 times. It's an awesome player. I can't compare it to the other two you have listed though, I've never heard them. I really want to hear the Apollo, and based on the comments, I'd be tempted to grab one of those over the Rote... 
Bi Amping with Rotel RA 1062 & RB 1070
The combo of the 1062 and the 1070 could be difficult, unless you are meaning to use the 1062 only as a pre amp. I'm guessing not since you mentioned biamping. You don't have any gain control on the 1070, so there is no way to match levels with yo... 
2-way speaker with best bass
The original poster made no claims that they wanted the best bass regardless of type of system. only that he wanted suggestions for 2 ways that had decent bass. My recommendation is the zaph audio L18 design. I have built two of them, and both tim... 
High speed Internet connection question
Hey phil, good choice, cable will be fast. I have avoided it because I do not like comcast. I'm forced to use dial up because of it. I use verizon wireless for work. It is slower than I would like, and you are billed by the amount of data transfer... 
Looking 4 good lower cost pre amp $300 to $600
An integrated under $1000 really opens up your options. On that front, I would include the audio refinement complete, the musical fidelity A3.2 and the Musical Fidelity X150. I'm sure there are a ton of others that would work well in the that pric... 
What is your favorite material for loudspeakers?
Are you saying you like plywood covered in a veneer? Typically when you say birch plywood, it references a layered material with a birch face veneer.My preference is for figured veneers (fiddleback anigre, waterfall bubinga...) with a precatalyzed... 
Best 2 Channel Integrated Used for under 750?
Musical fidelity is a good choice. The A3 is one of my favorites. That will fall in your under 600 budget. The A3.2 will fall under your 750 budget. They musical fidelity x150 is another one of my favorites, but you have to like that "half width" ... 
Anyone know what tweeter Wilson speakers are using
I'm having trouble locating a cut sheet online, but I believe it is the Focal TD120Tdx tweeter. 
This speaker crossover. Advise on improvement
Based on the photo at the link attached, I would say that just by swapping out components, you probably will not realize much of a difference if at all. They seem to use fairly decent components. While you could buy "botique" capacitors and try th...
