Best Integrated Amp for B&W 602 s2 +/-$500 used
I had a pair of 602S3 in a bedroom set-up and my use was essentially the same as yours (AE and occasional TV/Movies). I used a Rega Mira integrated to drive the 602s with very good results, certainly no congested mids. Still have the Mira and use ...

How to restore faded veneer due to sunlight?
Since you only need to work on one plane (speaker's side) you can try the following. LIGHTLY buff with 0000 steel wool. Only trying to slightly dull the gloss finish. Look for Minwax PolyShade (stain and poly in 1) in a matching color, satin finis... 
Audio Delay on iMac USB vs. Digital Outputs?
Herman -- No Apple snob!:)Installing Windows may be something to look into after doing a little research. Not sure I would do specifically to use the HiFace. 
Audio Delay on iMac USB vs. Digital Outputs?
Installing Windows on my iMac is probably not something I will do. 
Audio Delay on iMac USB vs. Digital Outputs?
Thanks for that info. Wish I knew that before purchasing the HiFace. I can tell you that the delay is greater than a fraction of a second! I'll send the link to customer service adviser at M2Tech.Too bad as the HiFace is a very nice device.

Klipsch speaker dropped from 4 foot stand - damage
Buy SB1s from a seller with a return policy. This will allow an in-home, in-person audition. Gotta believe that the cost of used SB1s (or SS1/SS2) will be less than new replacement parts direct from Klipsch

At under $600, you will do very well looking at the classifieds (monitor) listings here.One recent listing that stands out to me, is the Neat Motive 3s listed. I use Neat Critiques with a Rega amp and find the Critiques wonderful speakers. Accordi... 
Would getting a pair of Maggie 1.4s be an upgrade?
Not surprising the Maggies sold. I likely would have bought them for $200 if the seller responded. Good deals like this go fast.I would continue with Craiglist searches. With your budget and music preference, maybe look for a pair of Paradigm Stud... 
Would getting a pair of Maggie 1.4s be an upgrade?
Are you referring to the Magnepan 1.4, Chandler, AZ seller on Phoenix craigslist? If so, I emailed the seller regarding his "re-gluing" work yesterday (24MAR), but no reply yet.The 1.4s are definitely worth $200 if all checks out. Webnick's respon...
