Which surr/proc to go w/ Krell & Thiels?
I have Krell amps and Apogee speakers, I use the Sunfire theatergrand from it's balanced outs to the Krells, not a bright bone in it's body!Dave 
Advice: Hooking up DVD for 2-ch. analog AND coax
Dvd audio is analog signal so the digital output won't work for that, it will output a low-rez down mix though. As far as hooking up everything else the way you want to, you will just switch inputs on the receiver. If you have the two channel anal... 
Review: Blue Circle Audio Sugarbrie Tube Preamp Tube preamp
Thats a great story and glad you like the pre, I will need a new pre in this next year. If I don't go with another passive I may go tube..Gilbert sounds like just the kind of audiophile/designer I like to deal with. I've always read great things a... 
Who has a separate DVDA and SACD player?

Can you run outputs from dvd player to amp ?
Only if it has a volume control built in. You could use a passive volume control (passive preamp). You would need one with two inputs..one for your pre/pro pass through, and the other input would work for what you are trying to do.Dave 
Speakers that accurately reproduce a drumset
I think my Apogee Duetta Signatures do this very well, best I've had. I also have a pair of Vmps Supertowers, deeper bass but not as real sounding. I watched Diana Krall live in Paris Dvd last night and that was one of the things that struck me ab... 
Thiel Cs 3.6. Outdated?
The Thiel's spend a good amount of time in the 2-4ohm range If I recall correctly, this could be tuff on the amp if you have a large room or like to play loud.Dave 
bi-amping question
One of the downsides to bi-amping with a multichannel amp is that if the four channels you are going to use for bi-amping share the same power supply..no gain from reduced load as you would get from seperate amps.If you add a two channel amp to th... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
LOL, looking forward to that story J.D.Dave 
What Harmonic tech cables should I used for CD
It will depend on which DAC you think sounds better, If you use the RCA analog outs from the player then it's DAC's will be used..the digital out will use the DAC in your pre/pro. I use the digital out from my player because my Sunfire pre/pro sou... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Thanks for the post J.D., Didn't PBS do a story on you and this very subject a while back? Dave 
Krell KSA250 need services? When?
One day in the future you will push the power botton..the blue light will come on: BUT, you will not hear a click! Thats how a lot of Ksa-250's wind up back at Krell. The protection circuitry will be engaged and it will be time to go in for the fu... 
Preamp for Krell KSA 250 and Thiel 3.6?
You might want to talk to John Chapman at Bent Audio..http://www.bentaudio.com/index2.html, He can build you a passive NOH balanced preamp that will take your system to a higher level. I used one with my Ksa-250, the only problem you MAY or MAY NO... 
Linn Ikemi & SACD
Linn's sacd player is called the Unidisk player I think? The Ikemi plays redbook cd's.Dave 
What is the best receiver for me?
Yep, Nad would be good. You might also check out outlaw audio's receiver, I don't no much about it's features but a lot of people say it's a keeper.Dave
