Consider the $1200 cable purchase a lesson learned. I'm sure you can find some other sucker on Ebay or Audiogon.com to buy them back from you for nearly what you paid. After all, they're "burned in" now.

The speaker cable prices from "anti-cables" seemed pretty reasonable, and you get some funky looking cables as a bonus.

Let us know how you like the M3ti's when they arrive!
