Title: Mirage Nanostat 5.1
Post by: Mac on October 28, 2012, 03:31:14 pm
Mirage Nanostat 5.0 and Omni s8

Well after months of research and searching, I finally bit the bullet. I was leaning heavily towards the Orbs (http://www.orbaudio.com/) because of great reviews, great service and stylish design.

Then I ran across a listening of the Mirage Nanostat system and it hooked me.

My considerations was first quality. My sound has to be top notch. I'm so tired of average speakers. Secondly, they have to be small. For two reasons. I'm not a fan at all of speakers as part of the furniture. That's 80's thinking. I want my speakers damn near invisible, but produce amazing sounds. I also have a very small man cave I'm putting this in... 11 X 15, so they needed to 'fit' in the space.

The price was good, but after checking sites out, I discovered Ebay the best choice. I bought the 5.0 system separately.

The Omni s8 sub is an upgrade for half the price of the typical system.

To finish up the system I bought a monoprice  (http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=109&cp_id=10828)tilting/swivel tv mount for my 52 Sony. With a viewing distance of only 10 ft, every movie viewing even will feel like visiting the theater.

$350

Not bad for the sound I'm going after.

Man I can't wait to watch my concerts.
