Features
Overview: The Mirage OMD-5 is a
bookshelf/satellite speaker that uses sophisticated driver technology and
Mirage's exclusive OMNIPOLAR technology to make the small bookshelf speaker
ideal for virtually any sound application. The speaker is available in a Gloss
Rosewood and Gloss Black finish.
Note: The speaker is sold
individually; not as a pair.
OMNIPOLAR Technology: This
technology radiates
sound in a perfectly spherical dispersion pattern, expanding the sweet spot to
encompass virtually the entire room.
OMNIGUIDE Design: The design
consists of a conically
shaped cylinder that is responsible for reflecting sound in a perfect 360 degree
pattern. This unique design guarantees the same tonal balance and dispersion
characteristics no matter how and where you mount the speakers.
- The speaker should be inverted
with grille facing downwards when it is mounted above 6 feet.
- The speaker should be mounted
normally with the grill facing up when it is mounted below 6 feet.
Applications:
The OMD-5 is a very versatile speaker since it can be used as a front,
center channel or surround speaker. You can use these satellites to create a
complete home theater speaker system or a dedicated 2-channel stereo setup.
Voice Matching: This speaker can be
matched up with Mirage's OMD-C1 or OMD-C2 center channel, Mirage's OMD-28 or
OMD-15 floor standing speakers, and Mirage's OMD-R rear surround speakers to create a home theater speaker
system.
Note: The
Mirage OMND-S10 subwoofer for Home theater or 2-channel applications when using
the OMD-5 speaker is recommended.
Video Shielded: The speaker is magnetically shielded so you can even place on or next to your
television without distortion.
Drivers: The drivers used in
the OMD-5 are as follows:
- Woofer:
The speaker features a 5.5"
polypropylene titanium deposit hybrid woofer with a ribbed elliptical rubber
surround mounted at the top of the sealed cabinet.
- Tweeter: Floating above
the woofer is a precisely angled cast aluminum OMNIGUIDE module that houses
the speaker's proprietary 1" PTH tweeter.
Enclosure: The cabinet is made of very solid inert medium density fiberboard (MDF) which creates a solid,
flex-free cabinet which eliminates music altering distortion. The enclosure is
curved and completely sealed.
Mounting Options: The speaker
can be wall mounted using the supplied
plastic wall bracket. The wall bracket is attached to the speaker using the
supplied 9mm bolt. The screws needed to hang the bracket from the wall are not
provided. The speakers also have a flat base so they can be placed on stands or
a shelf. The footprint of the speaker measures 6.5625" wide x 7.4375" deep.
Speaker Terminals: The OMD-5
uses high quality gold-plated binding posts located on the rear of the speaker. The terminals will accept a wide range of
connector type including spade lugs, banana plugs or pin type connectors.
