Discount Mirage OMNI S10 Powered subwoofer


First off, let me comment on the incredible service of Amazon, and Crutchfield, the company I bought this sub from. The subwoofer arrived defective, and Crutchfield took it back and credited my account within 1 day of receiving the item back. Absolutely first rate service.
Now about the subwoofer. I originally wanted the Mirage S-12 subwoofer, but that has been discontinued (I have since found one). The reviews I read of the S10 stated that it was big enough for most rooms. This may be true, but Mirage itself states that its a great sub for "small to medium sized rooms". Please go with this. I have a large room (maybe 20x20), and although the S10 sounded excellent, it just couldn't handle the large open-ended room that I have sufficiently. That said - the S10 is one of the best subs I've ever heard. Its clean, undistorted, and gets deep. Again, for a small to medium-sized room, this will be all the sub you need. The controls are conveniently located on the front of the unit so you don't have to keep getting behind it to tweak it, but you have to remove the grill cover to access them. This is a very small factor (just leave it off until you are done tweaking). The unit itself is classy looking. Instead of the usual black gloss look, it comes with a nice black ash wood grain. Mirage stands for class so don't worry here.
As of now, this is the biggest sub that Mirage makes - and its a shame because as I said, the S12 is absolutely amazing as is the S10.
The sub performs incredibly well on both music and movies, but after repeated testing, I'd say that it excels in the home theater aspect (there is more bass in movies than in music). Do not fear as it makes your musical system come alive as well. I have heard things now that I've never heard before, and I am actually replacing a Mirage sub (BPS-150) with this one. Incredible clarity, classy looks, and the Mirage name make this sub a winner in every way. Get more detail about Mirage OMNI S10 Powered subwoofer.
