Poioneer Elite SC05
I replaced a Anthem AVM20 pre/pro with a Pioneer SC-07last month and couldn't be happier. The SC-07 is sonicallyexcellent, not to mention it's the best looking receiver or pre/pro out there. I'm using mine as a pre/pro with a Sherbourn 7/2100 amp. 
Emotiva or stick with my Anthem??
Goatwuss, The Anthem is great, but no HDMI which means I'mconfined to a 5.1 system via analog from my BDP-05 player. I currently have two monitor audio gold series 10's as wall hangings. 
Emotiva UMC-1 pre/pro
No , I called them yesterday. They said hopefully by the end of this month. The XMC-1 is expected to release in the third quarter. I suspect it will be Oct/Nov. I hope!!

Matching the center channel to the fronts
Buy a new TV stand, the center channel is critical to bothmovies and especially music DVD's. The audio quality of recent music DVD's is stuning. 
Monitors secure on stands
I used heavy duty velcro from Home depot. Never had a problem,even when I decided to sell the speakers, the velcro peeled off the bottom of the speakers without issue.

Which is the best amp for Silverline Sonata?
I'm using a pair of the Sonatinas II with a PrimaLuna Prologue2 integrated amp 40 wpc tube amp with very satisfing results.Primalunas are about $1300 new, $1100 used. Excellent value. 
Best Integrated for Sonus Faber
I sold my McIntosh 6900 Integrated to finance the purchaseof a Primaluna Prologue 2 ($1300) and have never looked back.I can sincerely say, I wouldn't swap for a brand new 6900 ifoffered. 
Recommendations on movie scenes for subwoofers
That's simple, go to your "Monsters Inc" DVD and look for thechapter where Boo is crying and Mike and Sulley are doing everything possible to not only stop the crying but evade thesearchlights of the ominous helicopter. While the baby (Boo)is cryi... 
Anyone with a high-end home theater sans sub?
Home theater is all about subs! More than one if possible.Todays DVD's audio sound tracks are really focused on LFEfreqs. 
Can these be used for both Plasma and 2-channel??
One of the reasons I don't want to involve my integraded amp is that it does not have a remote. Meaning, everythingnow is controlled by a single remote. I think the switchidea would work. Any ideas?
