Vandersteen's Low Spousal Acceptance Factor
I'll second Zkzpb8 suggestion. Considering what you have already tried and your price point the Meadowlarks seem like a worthy alternative. Keep in mind you won't have the company support. 
Can HI FI components really make music?
No, not yet. Most of us do get to enjoy a fairly satisfactory facsimile. You might not ever be completely satisfied though. With most live music events depending on similar and in many case worse quality components, whats one to do? That is a migh... 
Man, am i losing my hearing?
Slappy, May I suggest you get your hearing tested, take the blower and put it on after the warranty on the Mustang ends. 
Have Pre/Power amps had there day?
I think/hope not. I would prefer to see a trend towards being able to power drivers independently. I suspect that newer digital gear and surround sound may actually make it more affordable to more people in the near future. 
The Cable Company - Wow
While I have used and recommended the cable company in the past and expect to use them in the future, I don't think any one should blindly follow their advise. Interesting how everyone I personally know has been recommended and sent the same MAS c... 
Best component video cable under $150?
I have been enjoying a bunch of Have stuff for years. All but one S video cable have worked flawlessly. I suspect it's more the nature of those delicate connections inherenet in S video rather Have's fault. Cheap and good. The fellows on AVS Forum...

Pass X-series preamp with Adcom GFA-5802 amp?
I don't know from personal experience, I don't know anything about the rest of the system, room, or your personal priorities, but, I wonder if reversing the the quality i.e. a Pass amp and an Adcom pre might not be a better option. Just food for t... 
Which companies also offer good service??
I've had good luck with conrad-johnson, but, Thiel is in a class all by themsleves. When it comes to customer service Thiel is simply the best company of any kind that I have ever dealt with! Thiel's Shari should be awarded an honorary Ph.D. and o...
