The next generation
Way back in 2002, Mirage introduced the first generation of OMNI Series speakers. This was the first traditional box speaker series that featured OMNIPOLAR technology. The OMNI Series set the standard in manufacturing quality, reliability, and affordability. Now, Mirage is introducing OMNI's second generation - with as many hallmarks of design and audio as the first generation. In a nutshell, the Mirage OMNI 150C Bookshelf Speaker pair features patented OMNIPOLAR technology in a sleek design with an incredibly small footprint.
How Omnipolar speakers work
Omnipolar technology is what gives Mirage its superior loudspeaker technology. Research has shown that in a live musical environment, about 30% of what we hear is direct sound, while the remaining 70% is reflected sound, from walls, ceilings, and floors. Reflected sound reaches our ears a few milliseconds later than direct sound, but our brain assimilates the two by using direct sound to identify and establish location, and reflected sound to determine space, direction, and music type and quality. Conventional direct-radiating speakers with front-mounted drivers produce the opposite ratio of direct-to-reflected sound (70% direct and 30% reflected sound). To increase the proportion of reflected sound to more closely reproduce the live sound experience, audio engineers developed speakers with both front- and rear-mounted drivers and use the patented saucer-shaped OmniGuide deflector.
Designed to perform
The versatile OMNI 150 OMNIPOLAR bookshelf speaker is small enough to tuck into a corner, place on a bookshelf or even mount directly to a wall. Yet it also offers the sonic performance larger loudspeakers. The OMNI 150C was designed and endowed with the same precision and accuracy as all other models of this series, and is voice- and timbre-matched for uniformity within the line. That gives this speaker pair the versatility to be used as either front or rear speaker channel alongside other models in this series. By using Mirage's exclusive OMNIPOLAR technology, the OMNI 150C envelops and draws you into any music or home theater presentation. So dim those lights, turn on your favorite CD, and experience unparalleled clarity and sound accuracy.
An appearance to match the sound
The beautifully finished curved cabinet of the OMNI 150 is now available in an attractive cherry finish. Aesthetics and a small package make this speaker pair a compact and appealing choice.
