I did also purchase Mirages LFX3 equilizer to tune the lower frequencies and or route them to a seperate sub if needed. What cables did you use. I will also bi-wire maybe vertical biamp if i can fund it.

The equalization won't fix the woofers bottoming out,I eventually crossed the Mirage over at 100 Hz to Kenerjetics ?? SW-800 subwoofer system to solve the dynamic limitations completely.

I have used the 8008 balanced version, and I love the combination. I originally had the M-3's and an Aragon pre-amp (Aurum). I didn't really care for that set-up. The M-3's sounded very boomy on the bass. I upgraded to the M1's and it got a lot better. I also bought MIT speaker cables and interconnects. A lot better.I then switched to a Pass labs pre-amp, and that made all the difference in the world. The Aleph P pre-amp is awesome. You can pick them up fairly inexpensively used. (about $1,300 for non remote)
