check the for sale section here http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/ there's always lots of good stuff on here. I've purchased several components on avs, and all the sellers have been great.

www.audiogon.com is THE site for used high end gear. Many stereo shops sell stuff there they can't move locally.

I've heard the MK speakers. They shound great for movies, but were a little harsh (for me) when it came to music. Can't go wrong if you get them for a good price.

Just check Audiogon regularly. The first page is from retailers, but just scroll to the bottome and go to the next page for the used stuff.

If I remember correct, they're not the most efficient speakers (at least compared to the Mythos), so make sure you have the power to drive them.

M&K is great for movies and not so good for music. If you are interested in some new reasonably priced equipment, try www.outlawaudio.com

Otherwise the best place to find used is www.audiogon.com or for home theater specifically www.videogon.com
