Alan Pummill, I sent you a PM... Regards, John Charles

Hi Jerry: I definitely sympathize about being short on time, so here’s to yours well spent! :) Please don’t think I was defensive or taken anything you said personally; I just haven’t found anything written thus far that would warrant becoming that interested. Until then, I’m loafing along...

Billie, You're quite welcome!

Jerry, Anyone calling the company to get the company line on products, will more likely than not get just that: the company line - therefore; straightforward answers with most of the nice details involved sans protecting their interests - are most often vaporware (refreshingly unlike a few...

Jerry, No offence taken. :) Nonetheless, in my review, I had the Mirage ‘7’s, and ‘250’s, alongside Martin Logan Prodigies - all three were fed by an Arcam CD Player (forget the model number, and don’t know where it was in its break-in curve), Anthem TLP 1 (w/roughly 10 hours on it), Anthem...

LOL. Hmmm, when applying “dull” and “veiled” to the fairer sex, it conjures one who is rather slow-witted and not too becoming… No offense, however, its been my experience that the only practical way the 7’s could out do the ‘260’s (given your outcome) would be if the upstream componentry were...

In the amp. department, I've had great success with Anthem's MCA 20 (extremely impressive – performing well beyond its price range – though still alittle bright as mine has roughly 170 hours under its belt), and received even better results using the voltage outs of Sunfire's stereo amp...

Kevin, Please check out the AVS Forum for the Omni Series, as you'll find a lot of the information you're seeking - there... As to the review in question, I’m sure many people would unfortunately think it a good one, due to that “style” being very much the norm. on the ‘net (and elsewhere)...

You're quite welcome Kevin. When you get the chance, give the ‘260’s a listen, as they will be worth your while. I didn’t mention the Sound Stages review of the ‘60’s – as it’s a mixed bad at best, and incredibly inaccurate at its worst, to wit: Very Good to Decent Aspects: • Lead-in...

Hi Kevin, I moderate a thread at AVS devoted to the Omni Series from Mirage, wherein I do the "4 of 5 Review" between Martin Logan's Prodigies, and Mirage's Omni 250's and OM 7's. From the various contributors of the thread, you can extrapolate how the 260's may actually better the 250's...

Alex, I've a thread running over at AVS (currently 23 pages long) covering that very thing, check it out: Omnisats and Beyond: a Look at Mirage’s True Omni-polar Line of Speakers

jaleelk, I don’t appreciate in the least your fragmenting my thread in a realm (high-end audio) that you obviously know little about. To that end, I and certain of my associates have witnessed the break-in tendencies of EVERY amp. preamp., and speakers that we have ever owned, and therefore...

Ron, How does the '50 do with the Paradigm's tweeters, now that the amp. is broken-in? Also, have you had achance to compare it against anything else?

Gentlemen, Thank you for the experience outlaid in your responses – much appreciated! As further input, I read a post in the Audio Asylum by Kevin Deal (of Upscale Audio Fame) who wrote: The new Anthem MCA-50 is a true step apart from earlier models since they have dumped so much money into...

As my rear channel amp. bit the dust, I recently replaced it with an MCA20 (which I got at a huge discount). Understanding that my current HT is morphing into that which will be placed in a dedicated room, based on the following audio equipment: ·DVD Player – still looking ·Anthem AVM 20 V.2...

I appreciate the information! For those of you who are interested in more information on Mirage's true omni-polar series, I've started a new thread at, Omnisats and Beyond: a Look at Mirage’s True Omni-polar Line of Speakers. I would've doubled it on this site as well, but I rarely have the...

Herb. What a very kewl series of parallels (or for you drummers – paradiddles), wow, thanks for chiming in! As to your points: 1.LMAO! Oooohhhhhhyyyyyyyeahhhhh! Except for Jason L. (the one I usually deal with), and one of the managers who helped me get my AVM20 upgrade board; most of ‘em...

Wayne_T Though Hamilton is alittle outside of TO, give Jason Lopez at East Hamilton Radio a visit; tell 'im C.J. from Michigan sent ya...

Round 3 The third and perhaps final installment of this trek finds me back at East Hamilton Radio for yet another go-around with the Omnisats and the Aerius. I’ll spare you the details of the sales drone that tried to assimilate me into its idea of an otherwise worthless meal ticket when I...

Round Two: Mirage’s Omnisat Meets Gallo’s Due’ (Fade in) 10:30 AM - Ring…ring…ring… Ensemble A/V: Good morning, Ensemble. JC: Good morning. Do you still have the Omnisats and Due’s in the same room? Ensemble: Let me check with one of the sales people. (…pause…) Yes we do! JC: Great, what...

LOL! Matt, you rock. If you find that things are indeed as you recall, then if I EH-VUH find the reviewer of that vaguely remembered article, I’ll make sure that I point him in your direction! It is though interesting that Ian stays with titanium whilst yielding results that are close though...

Todd, Thank you for that info, I had no idea what models would be introduced and their pricing structure! Alan, Thanks for site with the pics and prices, its nice to see that they didn’t box ‘em in up top! Yo Michael, First thing first: “This post brought to you by a cheese...

Often times there are those in my circles who ask for help with AV equipment or information about the subject. That combined with a natural love for the hobby finds my periodically auditioning schtuff of interest anyway. Ever on the watch for overachieving components, along with a favorable...

I would certainly opt. for the following: · Anthem AVM20 ~$2,535.00 (the price I paid in November - may be more now due to its popularity) · Anthem MCA5 II ~$900.00 (for dealerships that still have them and are willing to deal - as it has been replaced by the MCA 50) I have heard this...
