WHAT EXACTLY IS OMNIPOLAR?
Omnipolar technology uses natural room reflections to create a greater sense of realism. This is
accomplished by recreating the same ratio of direct to reflected sound - 70% reflected and
30% direct, that is typically found in performance spaces. A conventional speaker only produces
30% reflected sound. It is the additional reflected sound provided by a MIRAGE Omnipolar
speaker that creates a miraculous three-dimensional sound experience in your home.
