Top quality speakers

(5 out of 5) by Peter M. Chin on Jan 19, 2006
I purchased 6 omnisat speakers along with s10 sub woofer and I am 100% satisfied with the products. I have played a mixture of music and home theater(DVD) and I am very impressed with the power handling, clarity, spatial feel, price looks/feel and compactness of the products. The feeling of spaciousness is very real, if you read the reviews from various home theater forums is excellent and quite rightly so. Excellent buy approximately $1,150.00 more than value for money.

The perfect speaker?

(5 out of 5) by Greg on Oct 20, 2005 (California)
OmniSats are the ultimate for small speaker-big sound. With a good quality subwoofer, these speakers deliver incredibly large, spacious, lifelike sound for music and home theater applications. It's odd, you can actually walk anywhere in the listening room - even behind the speakers and still get the same sound quality as if you were sitting in what would be (should be?) the "sweet spot". Because of this 360-degree bubble of sound, placement of the speakers in the room is extremely easy. Anywhere I place them they sound great, and anywhere I sit, stand or walk in the room, they still sound great. The design of the speakers is very cool/unusual too. My guy friends think they're cool looking, and women like them because they're small and don't take up a bunch of space. Everyone agrees they sound incredible. I think Mirage has finally done it - they've invented the perfect speaker.

Great Rear Surround Sound Speakers

(5 out of 5) by Robert Lafayette on Jul 8, 2006 (Atlanta, GA)
I purchased a pair of these speakers to replace some older JBL ones I was using as the rears in a 5.1 setup. I needed something smaller, with a lot of power, and with omnidirectional sound due to the setup in my living room. These speakers fit the bill perfectly. They are less than half the size of the speakers they replaced, can handle all the wattage my receiver can throw at them, and sound amazing even though the positioning for a rear surround is not ideal. I would recommend these speakers to anyone looking for a great speaker, or as an upgrade for an existing system. They are well worth the money.

Mirage OmniSat Speakers!!

(5 out of 5) by Bryan F. Fukushima on Mar 9, 2006 (Seattle, WA USA)
These speakers are great!! Perfect for home theater. With the Ceiling mount clip it is very easy to install. I used five of these speakers along with a 12" infinity sub woofer. Very big and clear sound. I would recommend these to anyone. Great value on Amazon.

Almost as good to ......

(4 out of 5) by E. Mark on May 19, 2006 (NYC)
I tested these speakers about 2 years ago when I got my hands on the 61" DLP. Since I already chucked $5000 on the screen, I wasn't going to go cheap on speakers.

My finals choices were down to the Mirage Omni and orbaudio. After extensive testing on movies, classical music, SACD, and DVD audio, it's unfortunate to say that I have to say OrbAudio is in fact the real winner. Indirectional sound is great if you are at a NYC club but not if you are trying to watch a great THX movie with a bottle of wine on a lazy friday nite, these just doesn't quite cut it as the sound is too sparsed out. (Try that scene in Bad boyz 2 with the bullets flying and Hero with the scene Jet Lee is showing off his sword skills and knock all the scrolls down - BTW, those 2 are the standard "quality speakers" testing scenes)

Don't get me wrong, these are GREAT speakers too and I am sure you are looking this way because like me, you wanted something that will go well with your designer-everything deco.

If you live in NYC and LA, go to their showroom and test out the Orbs (which in my opinion is way better looking in real life) or you can have them ship a full set with their famously matched Super 8 sub and if you don't like it, ship it back no questions ask.
