I heard some of their big towers with built in subs, and a center on a Denon 4803. For some reason, the 2 subs were on, but ALL the music was coming out of the center and rear surrounds. What do you think of these speakers?

    Never heard or read anything good about them so I never bothered to demo them.

    listened to them breifly, didn't really care for them (they seemed to lack in all respects), so i never went back for a serious listen...

    I think Mirage dropped the ball on the OM-5's, they are powered towers and can't be controled well, the bass is just out of control.You have to set the level at -6db in order to get some kind of clean response,I do not favor them.
    The OM-7's are a totally different story, they are a passive tower with clean and clear all the way down, very good speaker.The OM-9's are slightly boomy,with a bass over tone around 120 hz and down.Not a good speaker.
    Mirage has made some fantastic lines in the past, but the new ones except the OM-7's are terrible.
