Nah, Jay just quoted the wrong person when he made his comment. Wasn't pointed at you.

In the blog it says a stereo and ht speaker. I'm locking my guess into a high end, active, dsp controlled omni directional speaker.

That's what I'm thinking too, especially based on Andrew's past development history with Mirage. I am looking forward to finding out for sure though!

Should be a fun night. A friend is coming with me who has recently started recording his own music and we have been discussing speakers quite a bit lately. It'll give me a chance to introduce him to some Axioms.

Maybe for SonicFox, but I am about 1080 miles. SirQuack is another 100 miles further than that...

Doug Schneider from over at Soundstage! still uses the Mirage OMD 28 as one of his benchmark, reference speakers for evaluating high-end speakers. Soundstage! reviews some of the most elaborate and expensive speakers out of any review site.

It's a shame that Audiovox now owns the patents to Mirages Omnipolar designs.

As a Habs fan, I just can't bring myself to visit Montreal this year. It would be way too depressing.

Unless of course, you plan on pulling an Oprah and everyone in the crowd gets one!!!!

Saw this pop up on my RSS feed today, piqued my interest enough to come out of hiatus. Will definitely be following developments.

Never ask an engineer questions like that!

Oh, and it's 148 euro 500mL cans or 205.5 12oz bottles, but who's counting? wink

Because by the time they invent the math, the liquor store is closed?
