Alternative for Revel F32?
Neat Motive 2 would be a good choice. Terrific sound from a small floorstander. Should be able to be had used at your price, though they don't come up very often. 
Good budget amp for Mirage M1
I used an Aragon 2004 Mk II for several years on Mirage M5si with very good results. While not optimal for the M1, it would be better than what you are using. An Acurus A250 would probably work well also. I second a look at the Emotiva amps in you... 
Coconut-Audio tweeks
Only if the hyper space crystals are on the island too! The cable breakouts look like the pottery our kids made for us in first grade. 
Do you believe in Magic?
Actually, if you can read and comprehend plain English, it happened exactly the way Bryon said. He went through 6 of the so called "explanations" of your products. I haven't had that good of a laugh in some time. This is coming from someone that b... 
Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac
Sebrof, you are correct. Thanks for catching my mistake. 
Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac
I own GIK acoustics 242, and 244 panels as well as monster bass traps and tri traps. All of them are wood framed. There is a space behind the acoustic material. Purchased them new last year. I have never auditioned the others, but find theGIK pane...

Pat, your post just above my last one was not there when I posted. I should have read farther up and I would have understood. My bad. 
Clear Day Interconnects
Rfogel8, the model Rx8man and I have is called the double shotgun. It is a single run of wire with double the number of conductors of the shotgun model. It is a significant improvement from the shotgun to the double shotgun. The naming scheme for ... 
Audio stuff I've lost in my own home...
LOL Kenny!

Pat, I own double shotguns and you are in for a treat if you like his other cables. 
Grills ON or Grills OFF?
I have owned three speakers that would either require major surgery to remove the grills or were designed to be listened with the grill in place. The Mirage M760 were designed to be listened to with the grill on. Same for the rest of that series. ... 
Exceptional value in speakers today?
EBM, which of those you mentioned are selling for less than 1k as the OP stated for his price range? If you know of any, please let me know where I can get them. To the OP, a used pair of Revel M20s should come in under your budget and would likel... 
What is "low ball"
If I bought a car I would know the price I could realistically get it for when I arrive. It's called doing your homework. I guess getting offended one time out of the many negotiations I have had should immediately diqualify me from participating ... 
What is "low ball"
Let me put it another way. If that person opened with their offer, I would have negotiated and not had a problem with the offer. We certainly would never have reached an agreement though. The bottom line is not known until you get there. When my b... 
What is "low ball"
If someone asks you your bottom line and you give it to them, then don't bother offering lower because it is the bottom line. It is called courtesy. Lack of sourtesy is offensive, period. If you don't get it, sorry. What is sad is thinking lack of...
