Is anybody interested in purchasing a Mirage Prestige S10 subwoofer, should they be made available ?
Huntsetter1 ( the rep from Mirage ) indicated that if there was enough interest here, he would consider bringing in some Mirage Prestige S10’s.
The Prestige S10 was one of Mirage’s flagship subwoofers. It is rated at 300 watts continuous power and 1200 peak power, and can dig down to 23 hz, which means it will be able to faithfully re-produce most of the bass notes in movies and music.
The quality of the bass is very high. It is not sloppy and muddy like other subwoofers in the $500-$800 category.
The Prestige S10 also resides in a stunning piano black lacquer cabinet. Those with spouses who resent new “additions” to the household will be relieved to know that this subwoofer does not look out of place when co-habiting with high-end furniture.
If anyone else is interested in purchasing one of these subs, please speak up and post a message here.
I want to state here that Woot, thanks to huntsetter1, has sent me a replacement OMD-28 for my damaged one. The replacement speaker is in fantastic, like new condition. The best of the three I’ve received. Probably not coincidentally, the carton this one was in was practically undamaged. The other two had taken serious punishment.
Thanks again to huntsetter1.
after comparing the S10 spec’s with the prestige S10, the S10 has a lower frequency response than there flagship S10. 21Hz vs 23Hz. I have the S10 and sounds great but would like more power. I also have an Infinity 1000 watt 15" sub that I can shake my house with as that goes down to 18Hz and you feel the pressures of it that you can’t hear! Still waiting for the OMD-R’s.
Most likely! These speakers sold for $3,500 each at high-end audio dealerships, and if you do a search you will find many reviewers thought it was a bargain at that price. At Woot’s price, if the OMD 28’s are to your liking, they are an incredible bargain.
I agree that Woot’s pricing on the OMD 28’s represents very good value.
With respect to reviewers gushing that the OMD 28’s were an incredible value at $3500 each, It should be noted that these types of comments are not uncommon among reviewers whose publication may depend on advertising revenue from the manufacturer of the speaker being reviewed.
That being said, the current Woot pricing on the OMD 28’s is about as low as it has been in the last few years, when they were predominantly being sold by another company.
