2 sets of multichannel input ?

I am looking for receiver that will allow me to use both DVD-A and SACD. So far, only found SONY 555ES receiver to have 2 sets of multichannel input. Other similarly priced products has only 1 set.
Question is: do I need 2 sets? Can I connect DVD-A via digital input of the receiver. Is additional DVD-A decoder on the receiver required for such connection?

Also, if I intend to use seperate amp for the front 2 channels by using the pre-out of the receiver, can I improve the power of the center channel by bridging the center speaker output with one of the front channel speaker output?

Lastly, any recommention for receiver with good Pro-logic II, budget $500.

Thanks in advance for your time.
