DAC vs CDP DAC vs Processor DACs?
Do you know if the external DAC's will allow digital passthrough for sources that can do more then 2ch? How many of then can decode DTS/Dolby Digtal etc? 
Rotel RB-1091 vs Parasound JC1 on B&W 802D's?
Has anybody else been able to do a direct compare between the two amps? 
Any B&W 802D/800D alternatives looks and sound?
James,I 100% agree that I need to listen at the local dealers. That was the main reason for my post, I was certain there had to be better speakers out there for the money then B&W's but I just don't know where to start. Getting a few starting ... 
Any B&W 802D/800D alternatives looks and sound?
JC1's or rotel 1091's. Right now I have the 1091's and if I'm not happy with them I'll go for the JC1's.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Is there an area on the forumn boards with a majority of the hi-fi speaker makers listed? 
Any B&W 802D/800D alternatives looks and sound?
Good info. It is most certainly up to my ear to determine the sound but I appreciate the suggestions. It gives me for food for thought and more speakers to audition before making any decision. 
802D vs 800D vs 803D in Small room with open plan?
My requirements for speakers have recently become great sound with awesome imaging but also aesthetically pleasing. So far I've seen a ton of high rated speakers but the looks have been my main issue. Mainly the looks become a requirement on if I ... 
802D vs 800D vs 803D in Small room with open plan?
Thanks for all the thoughts. I saw a pair of used 8000D's on here for 10K but they were snatched up within a day. Mostly likely I'll be waiting for a while before I get to upgrade (cost wise) and I plan on upgrading the front end first. A pair of ... 
802D vs 800D vs 803D in Small room with open plan?
Can anybody compare the 800D's vs the 802D's? Is there a huge difference? Are they worth the extra $$? I know they need power, I plan to take care of that with some JC1's or keep my RB-1091 mono's. They both drive heavy loads pretty well. 
Rotel RB-1091 Mono's vs Parasound JC1 Mono's B&W
Miner42I contacted Rotel but no, I have not sent them in for repair. Once I found out the brand new units did it I didn't want to send in my equipment, have them tinker just to find out there is no difference. Mind if I ask your age? A good friend...

Parasound C1 vs C2 vs Waiting for HDMI 1.3 Pre/Pro
Looks like I'm getting what I want!http://www.htguide.com/forum/showthread.php4?t=30721 
which components to buy?
Good question, that's a huge listening space! The 4 x 500 watt RMS 12" subs should help fill the base but I'm going to assume his listening area is just a very open home plan with dinning room/living room, kitchen and breakfast nook all being conn... 
Rotel RB-1091 Mono's vs Parasound JC1 Mono's B&W
I'm glad it doesn't exist in all D-Class Amps :-) Perhaps I'll find a place around Austin, TX to demo them before I decide on new amps. Thanks for the help! 
Parasound C1 vs C2 vs Waiting for HDMI 1.3 Pre/Pro
The reason I wanted the 1.3 was the more recent decoding etc. I don't actually care to get video to the unit but for the latest and greatest HD Audio decoding it has to be over HDMI 1.3
