I have a Mirage setup running my TV sound in the living room.
The system is setup mostly for TV/Movie viewing and the occasional ipod/cd experience.
The key to my system is stealth. After 20 years of looking at a stack of audio equipment and 4' tall Polk LS-90 towers, it was time for a change. I set up a Mitsubishi 46" LCD inset in the wall over the fireplace with a Mirage Uni-Theater C/L/R speaker partially inset above it. The Mirage system works in this application due to the unique woofer/tweeter configuration and the ability to install the speaker 'upside down' so it fires towards the seating area. I have a pair of Nanosat Prestige's on the rear wall also mounted upside down. The sub is an 80 watt NHT hidden under an end table in a corner. I am using a Pioneer Elite receiver to control everything. All the A/V equipment is in a coat closet with hidden cabling. I used the ELFA shelf system to create a custom hanging A/V rack. Everything turned out quite nice.
When you sit down to watch TV you don't even notice the sound system until it turns on.
The sound is nice, not the best I have heard, but the stealth look was achieved which keeps the wife happy. I don't have anything bad to say about the Mirage satellite system other than it sounds like a typical 'satellite' speaker setup. The speakers were less than a grand thru Crutchfield.
