First off, a relative of mine is running a Theta Casa Nova into a series of inputs on a Levinson 380s and it works like a charm. The Casa Nova is a great sounding processor but is a royal pain in the *!&% to set up.

As far as your other questions, I just did something similar in terms of integrating my HT into my audio system. I have a pair of B&W Silver Sig 30s with a Goldmund Mimesis 2 preamp and Jadis Defy 7 amp. I was tired of having 2 seperate systems because I won't compromise my audio but decided to take the plunge and integrate video. I ended up purchasing the Marantz DLP projector (the older model, didn't feel the need for the newer model since video isn't my #1 priority), a B&W N-HTM1 center, still using my Magnepan 1.6s as surrounds from my old video system, and a REL Storm III subwoofer. Every time I use the video, it never fails to impress me and am glad I made the changes. Good luck...
