The Center of Attention
The three-way OM Design Series OMDC2 center channel features Mirage's proprietary OMNIPOLAR technology creating a 360-degree soundfield bringing movies and audio tracks to life. Never before has "being at the movies" felt so realistic and so seamless. The OMDC2 offers precise dialog placement while at the same time conveying a spaciousness and presence impossible for conventional forward radiating center channel speakers to achieve.
Great Sound All Around
Conventional forward radiating center channels are directional in dispersion and require that the listener be restricted to a "sweet spot" in the desired sound field. The OMDC2's OMNIPOLAR technology is uniform in dispersion, providing a perfectly spherical, full spectrum sound radiation pattern that greatly expands the prime listening area. It is this 360-degree radiation pattern that allows the listener to be positioned anywhere in the room and off-axis of the center channel and still enjoy pinpoint imaging.
Beautiful Sound, Beautiful Design
The OMDC2 is a true three way design featuring a 5.25-inch multi-layer carbon fibre/fiberglass hybrid midrange with underhung motor system, two 6.5-inch proprietary hybrid woofers and a 1.1-inch chambered titanium dome tweeter. Two sets of gold plated binding posts allow the center channel to be bi-amp and/or bi-wired. The OMDC2 features a beautiful hand lacquered curved cabinet. Its stunning appearance and its impressive sound guarantee to make this center channel a timeless classic for all music and home theater enthusiasts.
Part of The Ultimate System
If you are looking for the ultimate home theater audio system, look no further than the Mirage OM Design series. Combine the OMD28 front speakers with this unique OMDC2 center channel speaker, add a couple of OMDR OMNIPOLAR rear surrounds and you will never have to go to the movies again.
Included With Purchase
Aluminum disc feet, polishing cloth, grip gloves for unpacking.

This center looks great ... Especially when matched with OMD-28s... But unfortunately, this center is not for movies . You have to strain to hear what is being said. Its been a real disappointment for me. Shopping now for another center to compliment my totally awesome OMD28s .

Beautifully made speaker. Gorgeous rosewood finish. Perfect for home theater and music. On some movies where voices are really quiet, they come alive with this speaker! Voices are natural yet dynamic, placement is perfect, pitch is dead on. Handles serious amounts of power without fatigue or sounding bright. I cannot stress enough how beautiful voices sound through this center channel speaker, they are just amazing!

I just received my new OMD-C2. The wood work is gorgeous. The sound is even more amazing. It shows great synergy with my old Mirage OM-9 front pair. I played an old 3-Tenor at 1998 World Cup Pairs DVD. Unlike my old Polk Audio CS101, which usually sticks out, the OMD-C2 seems to be disappeared. But, I can see a clear picture of entire orchestra band and the 3 tenors from my ear, so clear like never before. Its beyond my expectation. I like Mirage OM series from my experience with OM-9, but not sure about the OMD series. The new speaker configuration is very different from OM series, and quality is unproven after Mirage moved manufacturing to China. There is no more local store carrying high-end OM series speakers. Without auditioning, its a hard decision to buy an expensive speaker. I took the chance, and relieved when see the product and hear the sound. Its better in both wood work and sound still in break-in stage than my old Canada-made OM-9.

I have owned this speaker for a year now. I purchased this along with the OMD-28 and OMD-15s for a music and threater solution. The C2 blends well with the OMD-28s for a very natural sound across the front 3 channels. The best feature is that it disappears! The dialogue is clear and detailed but the sound emanates from the screen. There is no distraction of looking for a speaker. That to me is the whole idea of a center channel is to make you focus on the screen and not call attention to itself. The Mirage OMD theater speaker system is an outstanding performer! I recommend it highly.

This has got to be best center channel made as far as center channel only speakers go, it carrys voice as well as blends music perfectly with my matching OMD-28 towers and they are 6ft to either side of this creature. Hefty is one description but also a work of art and probably the best binding posts ive ever seen they look like jewelry, the sound seems to radiate from the screen, as long as it is placed below it and in front of it, the sound is true to the omnipolar design and seem to come from the speaker unless your right on top of it, very well engineered and has no boxy sound whatsoever.
