These speakers are a great bridge between home theater and music listening. The M-3's have clear highs, desent mid's and carrry great low's. However they have been discontinued this year. Mirage now has a newer line, flagshipped by the OM-6, in my mind stincks! - due to self-powered sub that muddies the mids -I feel that Mirage has given-in to the status quo.

I have had these speakers for five years and think very highly of them. I am wishing to sell them, as I recently purchased a pair of Magnaplanars. I would take $1200. I paid $3,000 when I purchased them. They are excellent for music or home theatre.

The speaker is the best fullrange speaker for the price. It has the best high, mid, and low range dinamics. The sound staging is phonimal. The whole wall sounds like a speaker. I hear it throught my house. The bass and rumble is incredibal.

There is only one weakness besides the price and that is you need at least 200 watts to hear the speaker very good.

I just got these speakers and thay sound good. I am 14 years old and I am not some rich kid I saved my money for 12 years and mowed lots of lawns. When I first heard them they were hocked up to a Rotel 200 watt amp and a Rotel pre amp with a ponieer elit cd player. I have not gotten an amp or a pre amp yet but they are hocked up to my dad's old Tanberg intgrated amp and a nakimichi CD player. I usde kimber cable for wire. They sound ok on my dad's stuff, but you can't play it loud and it is missing some bass because his amp only puts out 150 watts per channel. I will get an amp and pre amp soon and put them in my room. I love these speakers to deaf! Ha Ha.

My biggest decision was to go for the M1si or M3si. For my sized room, I think that I made the right decision going for M3's, especially since adding a pair of flagship Mirage BPSS-210 subs. I sometimes hoped for the opportunity to get a pair of M1's, although for no rational reason. Since all of the above is now discontinued, it is all academic. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend these speakers if you have lots of power to drive them. I too, am disappointed in the direction Mirage seems to be heading. I will not be parting with my M3's for a long, long time.

They are beautiful looking. Soundstage is giant.

Here's the background. Bought a pair of OM-7's. Got an incredible deal. I sold them. I heard a pair of M1's. I guess I found out I am not a powered subwoofer kinda guy. Picked up a set of M3's, try finding M1's (plus the shipping on 175lbs each). They sound excellent. Look wonderful. They are quite big. Very heavy. But the sound is incredible. My Opinion is they blow away anything I have heard in this price range. Also, if you are researching a pair of these, you can buy all new drivers and grilles from Mirage still. If you like pure sound you will love these. I have heard speakers with much more bass but a good sub will fill what these don't. I highly recommend these. My only wish I guess is that Mirage would offer a high end speaker that isn't powered. Maybe just maybe they would give the M3's a run. I wish I could give them 6 stars in value
