Mirage Nanosat 5.1 Overview Whether you’re listening to mellow music or watching an action-packed flick, our compact Nanosat 5.1 home theater system, with its modern materials and unique miniature technology, brings your entertainment full circle. Consisting of five satellites—which serve as front, center and surround channels—and a subwoofer, the Nanosat 5.1 home theater system uses premium materials and patented technology to disperse sound in a completely immersive 360º pattern, recreating the experience of a live event. Benefits Includes 5 matching satellites and a subwoofer Small, versatile package unobtrusively fits any lifestyle Delivers enveloping 360º music and movie performances from any position Satellites finished in brushed black aluminum, subwoofer painted black with satin finish Magnetically shielded to avoid TV interference Detailed Description - Immerse Yourself in Sound Fantastically small, fantastically sounding—that’s what our Nanosat® 5.1 home theater system is all about. In fact, it’s your ticket to a sold out concert or movie premiere without having to leave the comforts of home. Each satellite employs a powerful 2.75-inch titanium deposit polypropylene cone woofer for amazing bass performance and a 0.75-inch pure titanium hybrid tweeter for warm, rich high frequencies. The 75-watt RMS powered subwoofer with an 8-inch driver blends seamlessly with the satellites, adding a level of low-frequency performance you can hear and feel. But what really separates this system from the rest is a patented Omniguide module, an ingenious design that involves two deflectors, employed on all five satellites. While one deflector rests on top of each speaker’s tweeter, the tweeter itself is housed in a deflector, suspended over the woofer. These combined elements distribute sound directly towards the listener, as well as reflect it off walls, ceilings and other surfaces—resulting in a perfect 360º soundstage. More importantly, you’ll hear the same enveloping performances from anywhere in your room. You’ll also discover this speaker setup easily fits anywhere and in any type of environment. It features a classy brushed black aluminum finish on the satellites and a black satin finish on the subwoofer, making it a welcomed addition to your room. Furthermore, the satellites come with endless placement possibilities. While included brackets make wall mounting a breeze, they also sit nicely on a shelf or table. But if neither option works for you, the satellites can be mounted to an optional MS-STB floor stand. The unobtrusive, yet extremely powerful, subwoofer can be neatly tucked away in a corner out of direct view. Adaptable and versatile, the Nanosat 5.1 is truly unique. Sure, there are other small speaker packages out there, but none that look and sound as amazing as this one. In fact, after experiencing its immersive 360º sound, you’ll immediately dub traditional designs passé. The Science Behind the Mirage Sound: Exclusive Mirage Technologies Omnipolar® SoundOur Omnipolar approach to speaker design brings unprecedented performance to a variety of product sizes and room positions. This 360º sound philosophy works with your room, rather than against it, to create the proper proportion of direct and reflected sound. Being Omnipolar means our speakers embrace and optimize reflections; offer excellent imaging, width and depth; and perform optimally regardless of where they are placed in a room. In other words, they take full advantage of the fact they cannot be separated from your room. You get a completely immersive experience that permeates evenly throughout your entire listening environment. Omniguide Technology Our patented Omniguide module (patent #6,996,243), also the heart of Omnipolar sound, is an ingenious design that involves two deflectors. While one small deflector rests on top of the speaker’s tweeter, the tweeter itself is housed in a larger deflector, suspended over the midrange or woofer, depending on the design. The module disperses sound the way the ear and brain are accustomed to receiving it. Thirty percent of what our speakers deliver is direct sound. The other seventy percent is sound reflected off walls, ceilings, floors and other surfaces for a completely immersive, 360º experience. So, no matter where you sit, the enveloping sound follows.

The way it creates an immersive, wrap around soundstage can't be replicated by similarly priced box speaker systems. In addition, the Nanosat 5.1 has a sweet, refined sound that's easy to listen to over extended periods of time.” “For the money, the Mirage Nanosat 5.1 is one of the best "lifestyle" satellite/subwoofer systems we've heard.” What Hi-Fi? Sound And Vision (December, 2008) "This system integrates confidently, with the sound enveloping us as we listen." "Smart, solid styling; excellent cohesion; exciting, fast listen; good with music too." Look en Listen, Thomas Van Den Bossche (May, 2008) "The Nanosats are very compact and are very well finished-The Subwoofer, a small cube, is also very well finished" "In short, we highly recommend this system." AV Guide, Chris Martens (May, 2005) "The Nanosat system, like any small system, has dynamic limitations you must observe, but as long as you play within the system's capabilities, it will reward you with sound that is at once enveloping and exciting, yet also relaxing—a very tough combination to pull off." "Compared to most systems at this price, the Nanosat offers superior imaging smoothness and three-dimensionality, greater freedom from edginess, better subwoofer integration, and reasonably neutral tonal balance that equals the best I've heard in this class." Home Theater & Sound, Doug Schneider (September, 2004) "...in terms of appearance, I rank them at the top of the pile. But what makes the Nanosats really special are the results of Mirage's Omnipolar technology: a large, spacious sound that belies the speaker's size, and the superbly cohesive soundfield you get from five identical speakers."

I am a little hard of hearing and clarity of the speakers and power forward helped me to hear. HomeTheater experience has been nothing short of fantastic. The speakers and subwoofer to fill my pole 20 feet x 20 feet with a ceiling 17 feet to surround the cathedral in action films of his vision. I was worried that small speakers would not be adequate room for the family because of its size, however, is the fact that pole, seems to have made a difference. 23 of 29 people found this review helpful. so-so by B. Davis I had these speakers just over 6 months and found that they are adequate but nothing special. I told them, coupled with a Pioneer VSX-19AHK receiver (first choice of CNET for some time) and do not have anything spectacular of these speakers is the subwoofer is probably the best part of the case - it can certainly throw. The speakers are small and I can for under $ 600, which was nice, but they are still lacking in sound quality. Mainly the center channel is simply not there. I live in a 1000 m² / ft apartment with a living room quite small and still find myself off the volume on Blu-ray at a time when the parts are worn out from the front. I recommend obtaining a visible center speaker on top of the package to see whether they can do better. It is not surprising that there is indeed a matching center speaker that you buy separately - the Mirage Nanosat Cc Chairman small high performance center (High Gloss Black My other complaint is the size of the "Fata Morgana" sticker on each cube speakers .. For this price, it would have been nice for a quality badge Instead you will see that the "mirage" badge is nothing more than a sticker. Within a few months began to lift the corners of the stickers and now some of them are all but falling. For $ 800, you can do more with your money. 9 of 10 people found this review helpful. Wonderful, Crisp, Clear Audio By Robert What can I say about these speakers? Wow. We had a couple of JBL speakers, which is about four meters long, good quality, along with a subwoofer, which was about 50% larger than the sub in this set. We wanted to upgrade to a surround system and get rid of larger speakers. We thought about going with Bose satellite system, until we read some reviews. We finally found them, and are certainly glad we did. I left JBLs connected to tell the difference, and what a difference! The sound is much more clear and clean at the Mirage speakers. You will not know that this incredible sound coming from these little speakers These speakers are well built (that feels heavy for its size), and a powerful punch. The only complaint I have is with the design, if you will mount them on the walls. The bottom is flat and ugly. Only one is mounted on the wall (they could place the other on the shelves, etc. ..) and had to turn a setback because the others would have looked weird. When everything was sure to buy again.
