3 channel amp to go with Roland monoblocks
I can not help you with an amp as I have not listened to the Roland M-3's. I can tell you this though, Always use speakers and AMP's with the same sonics all around ar at least as close as you can get for the best hometheater sound. I use a Krell ... 
Palladium II transformer hum silenced, thanks
I know I'm glad I found this site a while back. Some very smart people with lots of experience. Glad you found the problem. 
Rcver sub output avail: both LFE + 2 Ch stereo?

Speaker recommendation - 3K budget
Try to find a VMPS dealer in your area. The new ribbons they are useing along with the great bass they are known for makes them worth a listen. They have a wide line of speakers in all sizes and price range. 
SACD player for CD
I would just get a good older redbook player if I was you. If you don't have a real high interest in sacd then why buy one. None of the Sacd players above can be had for $1000 but all will beat the pants off an older $1000 redbook player on redboo... 
SACD on Redbook Player
Your redbook player will not play Sacd layer. The fatigue is from the redbook layer, it is not DSD. The Sacd layer is not even true DSD on these old recordings. A remaster of these old recordings will be no better than fair-good sounding unless th... 
5.1 Dolby audio switch unit.
You can get a good switch box at www.switch-box.com/ or you could rig up or buy a cheaper unit at radio shack. The good one is $200 and the radio shack would be much less.

List Ultra Dynamic music for testing systems
Try, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Braveheart, or Pink Floyd The Wall. All three can take your speakers apart for ya. 
SACD on Redbook Player
I don't think so. I have some sacd's that are as good or better than anything I have listened to in any format. The stones music sounded like crap to begin with. True DSD recordings are or can be as good as it gets. It would be nice though, to hav... 
What brand outlet for dedicated lines?
Hi Albert, I would like two outlets if we get enough people as I have just had two lines installed for my system. 
Comcast HDTV???
When I talked to Comcast here in Flint Michigan the told me they had three HD channels: ABC,HBO and Showtime. They would be adding more down the road. They have a one time $29.95 hook-up fee and five dollars extra a month starting in March if I ho... 
AVR5800 and Bose 901
The bose eq. was made to work for the bose speakers only. Do not use it on other speakers. Use it only in the channels that you use the bose speakers in. It is not an EQ. in the true nature of a graphic eq. Do not use the pre outs for the front L+...
