The Mirage M-3si is a floor-standing, three-way, vented-box dynamic loudspeaker featuring one 10" carbon-filled polypropylene-cone woofer, two 5" carbon fiber/polypropylene-cone midrange drivers, and two 1" titanium-dome tweeters. It incorporates a redesigned internal lattice structure and thicker MDF outer walls to reduce resonance and enhance deep bass output. The crossover has been revised to reduce distortion and improve frequency response and driver coherency, with crossover frequencies at 350Hz and 2kHz. The woofer magnet is heavier than its predecessor, improving power handling and lowering distortion. The speakers are known for their lightning-fast response, superb midrange, silky-smooth highs, and potent, controlled bass. They produce a massive soundstage and are capable of delivering a concert-like experience at high volumes. The M-3si is no longer manufactured but remains highly regarded for its sound quality and build.
