Good DVD Concert?
Morcheeba, "Parts of the Process". Very well recorded and mastered in dd5.1 Surround. Not TECHNO at all. Very good musicianship on stage too. You will become a fan if you have a good player.I was happily surprised to play this on my system. 
Best HT System with Projection Screen for $14,000
Definitely budget for a scaler that does 720P or you will only be able watch the HD channels. This is because everything else at 240i looks so dithered or pixelated or something. I only use a 50" TV set. I would hate to see a large projector image... 
Good DVD Concert?
Paul Van Dyk with title, Global (Bonus Dvd)Included with the CD.The track, Zurdo, from the movie of the same name, is an incredible 5.1. One of the very best recorded music DVD's I ever heard. Most of it is 5.1, the bonus tracks are Dolby digital....

Power conditioner for Krell Mono Block?
I use a Sound Application Linestage with the Elrod cord to great effect. It is a articulate Krell now that still has that great bass Krell lovers like. I also own the UO high current using a PS Audio power cord and also used with many other many o... 
Opinions on Lexicon MC-1 re:2-channel transparency

Martin Logan Theater vs Cinema???
I had an amazing difference between the Logos and the Theater, right out of the box. I use the inexpensive Granite 555 PC and Valhalla speaker wire and the speaker on some Aurios pro. PC cords really make a difference.
