Returning to 2 channel only. Suggestions?
Slipknot1, I have TG II and my DB25 cable was $150 I think but it's been a while ( monster cable). You can have one made up for you if you check around. I can't think of the name of the company that makes the link-dac, but I think they sell one al... 
Returning to 2 channel only. Suggestions?
I was just listening to (Alison Kraus,Natale Cole,Pink Floyd) in sacd surround this morning and thinking how much better it sounded than two channel when I saw your post. Are you sure you want to go back to two channel? it looks to me like you nee... 
Best used 5 channel amp for under $3k?
Bruce, I have the krell kav-500 in my system also and it is a great amp. I had a krell ksa-250 for my mains so I added the kav-500 for center and rears. I have not listened to anything else I would rather have at any price. 
Any surround better than none at all?
In your case I would try to get a center speaker that is a good match for your mains and not worry as much about the rears for now. In the mean time I would just use what you have for movies, if your room will allow for it you might be able to set... 
Integrated Amps to drive Agogee Cepheus/Slant Hyb.
Yes Muralman, I check out the apogee forum everyday, good site. 
Integrated Amps to drive Agogee Cepheus/Slant Hyb.
The Apogee Cepheus is not to hard to drive and should be fine with any good integrated of 100 watts. I have centaur minor's and you can drive them with 50 watts of clean power. 
Krell KAV and B&W 804's?
The B&W 804 is a nice speaker but not one I would lean towards if I listen to mostly rock music. 
Subs without power amps
The big VMPS subs are passive and very good, I have one I drive with an Onkyo M-504 amp. 
which is better, Sony SCD-1, or SCD-XA777ES?
Redbook-SCD-1, SACD playback-depends on if you want more in your face/SCD-1 or laid back/Xa777. 
A to D to SACD to A: A Natural Progression?
There is a company out that sells a easy to use all in one DVD ripper. They tried it out not long ago and said it makes exact copies. The only problem is that a lot of movies are to much data for one DVD. All computer DVD'r are the same size, a li... 
Dipole/bipole or direct radiating
Muralman1, I'll check it out thanks. 
I am currently looking to buy a multi amp
You may also like the Aragon amps. 
Dipole/bipole or direct radiating
Muralman1, do you have Apogee in a multichannel setup? I would love to hear something like that. I have Vmps all around in my multichannel system but have a pair of Apogee Centaur Minors in my two channel system. I'll bet an all Apogee system with... 
Why is there so much Rowland gear for sale?
3chihuahuas, well said 
using a carver shg modelc9
I would think you could insert it between the amp and pre if you have jumpers. I guess the problem with that would be that it would always be active as with tape loops you could turn it off and on.
