B&W 603s gone; I'm lost down the rabbit hole
I think the Usher S520's would serve you very well for what you are asking. 
Feedback on following Set up

Check out VH audio, they have cryo'd 10ga. romex by the foot ($2.99/ft.), and a wide variety of recepticles to go with it.I really like the Pass & Seymour MRI recepticles.Once you run your dedicated line, your system will be take to a whole ne... 
Velodyne DD10 vs DD12
With a room that large, you may want to look at the JL fathoms. 
Best rock/jazz speaker under $10k used

hifi interconnect good for sub
After using any and every cable I had available for the length required, I have found there is no need to spend alot on a sub only cable.I ended up using Tributaries Series 5 (9ft.), and they do a very good job for a very good price.If you need a ... 
One Super high end cable or mid level set?

best used inexpensive cd only player
I can't think of anything digital that has stepped back in processing.It would seem that if the earlier formats were the way to go, then all manufacturers would be stepping back.Remember Windows 95?I can remeber when AC-3 was the BOMB.Everyone wan... 
Direct TV and digital hum problems
Call the sat company and tell them about it.They will come out and fix it free.Its their problem their equipment, not yours.I like to dispatch them on a regular basis, seeing that they raise their prices on a regular basis! 
The Hub: Here's some GOOD NEWS from the audio biz
Why aren't they buying the knockoffs coming from that area?Everytime I try to sell something here on Agon, I have 3 people from Asia asking me to ship to them.It has exploded over there, and they want all the US stuff for sure.Not only audio, but ...
