mac mx130
If your intention is to use six channel analog out on the bluray and use the six channel analog inputs on the MX130 then use the processing on the bluray player. If it is a bluray player it should have DTS-mastersound and True Dolby decoding with ... 
dts 5.1 fold down to stereo better than cd?
I have a Ayre C5xe-mp and play my 5.1 SACDs, DVD-a's and DTS 5.1's on it and feel that they do sound better, much better, than the redbook versions. So I assume that you would get similar results on an Oppo. 
SACD's not playing in Denon 2910
I owned 5910ci for years which was big brother to the 2910. I had it do similar things on rare occasions. And I found that if you can restore to factory default would solve most issues. One time I did have to unplug it for a couple of days to reset. 
Audiophile stores in Denver metro area
Oh yes forgot Cherry Creek. John there is very helpful, but I still think you need to stop in to Audio Alternativejust to see the largest private vinyl collection I have ever seen. And he doesn't even have all of it unpacked yet. 
Audiophile stores in Denver metro area
Go 50-60 miles north to AudioAlternative.com, Rick has a store that worth the trip. And since you're in to vinyl, then his store is must see. You will hear a fully tricked out LP12 and a first rate Audio Research system thru Vandersteen 7's. And d... 
Alternative for Revel F32?
F12's are taller than 30", to keep it under 30" and still have a sound equivilent to the F32 will be difficult. You may look at Totem or Vienna Acoustics to name a few. 
Cardas vs. Harmonic Technology
I have Golden ref IC's throught my system and due to the length and cost I have Harmonic Tech Fantasy speaker cables. I have tried the Pro-9 and could buy a used pair at a good price but wasn't overly impressed to the point of doing so. They reall... 
Accessory Wall Wart Removal Ideas?
Have you looked at a transformer with a variable output? That would allow you to boost voltage to compensate for amperage draw. Check part-express.com, or mouser.com. 
Ground Cheater plug or....
A couple of things you could do. One use the cheater plug, if you are using a standard wall outlet then there is an additional inch of the same grade of copper, brass etc that is used in the outlet. So you won't lose much from a performance standp... 
Ayre C-5xe mp vs PS Audio Digital Link III
To clarify your question, are you stating the the PS Audio plays louder by 3-4db ?

Elizabeth is right about 10 dollars and they pay the postage. 
Bloodline-"Bloodline" Smokin' Joe Bonamassa
You're welcome Mofi, and thank you I have it playing now...again. I find it amazing that Joe Banamassa has been around for years and I just recentley discovered him. I can't help but wonder what other talent I am missing. As an example, the other ... 
Retail?
Another vote for current retail as that is what it cost to buy a new one now. And at the bottom of the deal, people very seldom pay the asking price. So what does original MSRP matter, value is determined at the point of sale.As long as they aren'... 
Which LPs are on your permanent rotation?
Only four?? First to mind of recent, Pink Floyd 'Wish you were Here', Bruce Cockburn 'World of Wonders', Yes 'Tales of Tpographic Oceans' and Grateful Dead 'Terrapin Station' and the 9 O'clock news.
