Rob, looking at what you have now, it seems clear to me that adding surrounds should take precedence over a DVD player. You could use DPLII on your 1802 to enjoy surround effects from CDs and other stereo sources. It seems premature to be thinking about things like DVD-A and SACD. Developments are moving very quickly in this area and players are beginning to appear which are cheaper and better, so you should wait a bit. Also, don't be "stunned" by raves about supposed audible superiority; instead take them with a ton of salt.
