- The Mirage speakers radiate equal energy front and back, the goal of the
- rear radiation is to provide the *one* critical reflection. That's why
- the Mirage's are so @$#(*@_) difficult to set up, and why you need a very
- well-laid-out room for them to work. It's also why, since I'm moving and
- my new digs aren't set up in such a way that I can have them 3 feet from
- the wall, my current pair of M-1's is for sale. Anyone interested? :-)
