Find a local shop that will let you home test some things. The speakers need to be in your home, with your equipment, to sound like they will sound.

Also- you are going to be able to find people who love or hate every single speaker you ask about. Your ears are what matter.

That being said, the mirage speakers you mention are, I believe, the ones with the upward firing drivers that dissipate sound over a cone. They are more optimized towards a small room that presents difficulties with proper soundstaging. The will have a less defined soundstage, meaning you won't be able to close your eyes and pick out where the sax player is. But supposedly they are better equipped to mimick a soundstage in a small room due to their design.

Give them a shot along with some comparably priced stuff. Have fun! I plan to get a good system someday.
