Upgrade...Sounds great...Goes away
Sometimes a change,is just that.When was political correctness an issue-just the facts maam.Dragnet! 
Interconnect cables for EAD sig and Rotel RMB-1095
I wouldn't see why not.You might experiment using the same cable in the rest of the system.I believe Parts-Express sells these-in various lengths. 
Question about 5u4 tubes ?
Vintage Tube Services/Andy Bauman. 
Monitor speakers for Tube integrated?
ARS Pieces? 
How many great CDs do you have?
About 10% are "reference".Burmester,Mapleshade,Mercury and the Purist Audio demo CDs.Though there are a few which span the gap-Tom Waits:Mule Variations.If "Take it with me when I go" doesn't stir an emotion or two,something is wrong. 
Good Amplifier to Drive Thiels' CS1.5
I would look at the hybrid/digital integrateds.The Thiels like power,so I wouldn't skimp on the WPC. 
Interconnect cables for EAD sig and Rotel RMB-1095
The Parts-Connection/MAS cables work well in my HT set-up.This is a solid core silver IC with teflon dialectric.It can be bettered in the .1/LFE loop.There I use the Black Mountain Pinnacle Gold-great bass cable,not so great in the high frequencie... 
Whic CD player would you pick and why
Might suggest for synergy sake,going with the Mac pre and CD player.An audition couldn;t hurt. 
Pre Suggestions Krell KSA-250 & Apogee Scintillas
First Sound Deluxe MKII(tube) or Placette Active (SS). 
Looking for a small bedroom amp
The small "chip" amps.I bought a Winsome Labs Mouse,single input.I understand these can be configured without the attenuator.Very impressed with price/performance ratio.

Isn't this much like the "dog with a bone" analogy.Quite happy until it sees its' reflection in the water,drops the bone to get the other.Now has neither. 
ARC CD7 in PASS 150 INT & BW803D&Cardas GR
What are the attributes of the present system? Which side of the ying/yang curve are you favoring? Leaning toward more warmth or greater detail and articulation? I would imagine toward the warmth side. 
Best Bookshelf/Monitors Speakers? Suggestions
As to your question concerning the Gallo 3/3,1,they can be driven using 25-40W.However,buy them used as I understand they need to be driven hard to break-in the woofers. 
Any one know why my oppo 981 sounds muddy on dvds
Which is being used,the stereo outputs or the analog 5.1? 
Just moved and have a smaller audio room 10.5 x 15
Gallos-just my vote.
