I think the ultras would be able to go louder and stay linear and clean. From what I remember of hear Mirage speakers,(long time ago) they were very “wall of sound”, but also a little like bipole mains. Very different. I prefer a more traditional implementation, so I would recommend new speakers/subs with less focus on the AVR. I may have missed(should go back and read) but I’d be curious to what
@RyanMN thinks about the mirage sound in general and if there’s a basis for comparison to other speakers. I’ll go read, and edit accordingly if I find that above.
Edit: ok so one thing was he’s missing midrange and punch. Imo the 5.5’s in the mains just can’t deliver that. Those and the super cube need to be the starting point.electronics won’t do anything for the mirages to “wake up” and change their sound.
