Experience with portable "mp3" devices
I love my iPod. I use apples lossless encoding and iGrado headphones, by Grado. (I realize that " by Grado" may have been obvious.) They stay on your head when you're active, sound pretty good to. They do not block out the ambient noise, but you c... 
Whats on your turntable tonight?

How to Increase Turntable Height on High WAF Rack
Is it possible to put your rig on the bottom shelf? That is how I have mine set up and I really like sitting on the floor to put on vinyl. It's comfortable (stable)to brush the record, drop the needle, hit it with the Onzow etc.

Great Hi-rez sound from the analog outputs from a $200-300 BR player seems doubtful at best to me compared to what your Rotel should be capable of. If it were me I'd use the standard dolby/dts through your digital connection to your cuurent AVR.

Your Onkyo AVR will do the decoding. Quite well. I have the same AVR as you. Decodes all the high and low rez Bluray formats you can throw at it.

How Do I Play DD-HD and DTS-HD Soundtracks?
I assume this just means there is no room/speaker correction and only the volume control works when using this input?Correct. You'll need to set distance (delay) and volume for each speaker through your Bluray players set-up menu.
