I am just crossing my fingers that it is something in ADDITION to my M80s and not an upgrade from my M80s. I believe that they said that the new product would work in conjunction with V3 speakers...

That was quite some time ago, when it appeared that it would possibly be a separate electronic component. It now appears that it's specifically a new speaker designed by Ian and Andrew with the new technology embedded in it. It may or may not be feasible to apply it as an add-on to earlier models.

It's a shame that Audiovox now owns the patents to Mirages Omnipolar designs.
I agree. Note that they may own the patents to Mirage's designs, but there are many other omni type speakers out there too. Maybe Andrew can still design something as such, without infringing on the Mirage patents. A shame if he couldn't considering how much work he did on the OMD 15/28 ect.

I hope it is a Large 3 way speaker with a 8-12" woofer... However, i don't think that is the case...

The Omniguide would be a big one and I believe they would own the intellectual property to the term "Omnipolar". Mirage basically wrote the book on omni directional speakers. But like you said there are other omni directional speakers out there.

. . .And it sounds light-years better than my breadbox or fridge! Even if you're playing back a recording of your breadbox or fridge?
