MIT Terminator 4 Bi Wire?
Was told it was in the thosandsNot even close to being correct.I've read posts about the Terminator 2, which I think was a step up from the 4, that said they were about $500.This is correct. I'm guessing used may be in the $150 range. 
How to use pre-existing bi-wire
Just connect both spades on the speaker end to the proper posts. 
Integrated Feeding Integrated
What are the two integrated amps, and what is the purpose of using both of them? 
Amplifier with the best Bass?
You need to read this post,http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1234896660&openfrom&6&4#6Using two different amplifiers is not a good idea. 
Multich stereo w/ combo electrostats & reg cones?
A multichannel system should have timbre matched speakers. Using all identical speakers is the absolute perfect timbre match. Subs do not need to be the same brand as the other speakers, but when using more than one, they should be the same, which... 
Lower Volume from One Monoblock
My only thought was that since the 20's don't really go too low that in the bass it might work.Stickman451, you need to trust Al on this one. I've had some experience with an impedance mismatch, and bass was not the only issue with the sound. It a... 
Best Of Audio, Company OK?
Read their warranty policy carefully. It sounds like you will have no manufacturers warranty since they are a liquidator and not an authorized reseller. 
Lower Volume from One Monoblock
The Bal/SE switches should be checked, however, interconnects and other components will not be the problem. Since the reduced sound moves as the amp is moved, it can only be the amp. 
Subs with Acoustic Zen Crescendos?
The Acoustic Zen Crescendo low end specification is listed at 20Hz +/-3db. Why would you need a sub? Would you care to list the rest of your system? 
Good Optical Coaxial cable under $200 ????
One thing to keep in mind is the length. You should use 1.5 meter and longer, or extremely short. See this review,http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue14/spdif.htmI have heard this cable compared to many others, some quite a bit more expensive, a... 
My receiver won't work
I disconnected everything but still it is going back to standby mode when I turn it onThat is a sure sign that it has internal problems. 
Rotel RSX-1067-Yamaha RX-V3000 or DSP-A1
I would use the Rotel RSX-1067. 
Objective vs. Placebo relating to system changes
If you think that some cones and wires are going to make your system sound like it cost $30,000.00, you need a reality check. If you think that some cones and wires will make a $30,000.00 sound better, you're in the ballpark.I agree with Krell man... 
packing and shipping
Contact McIntosh for packing boxes. Unless they stopped, they will make an original box and sell them to you. They won't be cheap, but it will be the safest way to ship them. The glass faceplate on the C-20 is easily cracked. Also, you will likely... 
loud popping sound from left channel
I'm thinking your volume is turned up somewhat loud. If so, the alarm on the Adcom 545 is an indication that you have reached the maximum output for the amp. The popping sound is probably the woofer in that speaker bottoming out. I'm sure if you t...
