Looking for High Efficiency Sat/sub System

What electronics are you going to use to drive the speakers?I have lived with a sub/sat system(the Baby Grand system) from a company called Aura Sound,for the past 2 years.They are the original patent holders for the Line Source Tweeter(Lineaum)which was used by several companies with excellent results.The speaker uses a proprietary 3"woofer with extra long throw surround & the line source tweeter.I drive them with a 100 wpc Pioneer Elite & they absolutely ROCK!Great sub/sat systems can be had from:Quad(the "Lite"system)or KEF but I think the most effecient system is probably from Paradigm.Hope this helps.

Mirage OMD-5 or OS3-Sat for satellites, and the sub that best fits your tastes and the room. For good performance and compactness, check out Mirage's MM-6. For a little more punch and more cabinet size, go for the Prestige S8.

The satellites I mention are sensitive (90 dB for the OMD-5, 89 dB for the OS3) and very dynamic (power handling of 150-175 watts). They are particularly punchy once broken in. Take a look at the mid/woofer driver surrounds. Those ribs are a patented design the enables the driver to maintain linearity over a wider excursion range. I have a pair of OMD-15s that have a pair of 5.5" drivers with the ribbed surrounds and they make effortless, clean bass down into the 30's.

You can cross these over lower if you'd like--around 60 Hz for the OMD-5 and 80 comfortably with the OS3. That's desirable for better image stability than 125.

Another alternative would be to go for the OS3-FS, which has a tiny footprint and plays lower; you could almost do w/o the sub or cross over around 40-50 Hz.

If you want something really tiny, go for the Gallo Nucleus Micro or Due' and one of Gallos' matching subs. See http://www.roundsound.com.

I don't mean to thread-jack, but I've been eyeballing the Mirage OMD-5s. Like Stonedtemplepilot, I've been looking for the best full-sounding, small footprint speaker to place in my 2.1 bedroom system. I'd like a full range sound at low levels. The OMD-5s definately have WAF going for them too. Johnnyb53, have you compared both the OMD-5s and OS3 head to head?
