Mirage Nanosat 5.1

Mirage Nanosat 5.1Fabulous valueI've had a Nanosat system for three years now. The speakers are small and unobtrusive, can mount anywhere and best of all provide nice diffused sound. This diffusion helps blend out blatant sound effects. You know, the ones that scream "this sound effect brought...

Mirage Nanosat 5.1

It's safe to say that the Mirage Nanosat 5.1 Home Theater sounds unlike any box-type satellite/subwoofer combination system on the market. While conventional box speakers project sound forward, the Nanosat speakers are designed to produce a ratio of 30 percent direct and 70 percent reflected sound. The direct sound heads...

Mirage MX 5.1

Just when we thought satellite/subwoofer systems couldn't get any smaller, along comes the ultracompact Mirage MX 5.1 retailing for $1,200. (Mirage calls it a "Home Theater System," but it's really just a surround speaker package that requires a separate AV receiver/amplifier.) Just how small is it? Each MX satellite speaker...

Energy RC-Micro 5.1

Energy is big on small speakers, and it always has been. That's what we were thinking as we set up the RC-Micro 5.1 ($1,000)--it took us back to when we reviewed the original Energy Take 5 satellite/subwoofer system in 1997. That model took us by surprise precisely because Energy's engineers...

Acoustic Research WHT6024

The Acoustic Research WHT6024 is the latest in a barrage of attempts at a wireless surround speaker system. Keeping in line with others we've tested, the wireless solution bundled with the WHT6024 is simply not wireless--in fact, there are more wires used in this $800 system than most wireless solutions...

PSB Alpha Studio Theater System (2006)

Canada's PSB Speakers offers a wide range of models, but it's the entry-level, hugely popular Alpha series that consistently makes the biggest splash with budget-minded audiophiles. The original Alpha series was introduced in 1991 and has been upgraded a couple of times over the years (most recently in 2002), but...

Mirage Nanosat Home Theater System (Platinum/Black)

Viva la difference! Conventional box speakers project sound straight ahead, so it's easy to identify them as sound sources. By contrast, Mirage's Omnipolar designs, such as the Nanosat, radiate sound in a 360-degree pattern. That makes them far less localizable and accounts for the Nanosat's unique sonic qualities. The $800...
