Help on Surround Speakers

[Hk Chuck]

I have a dilema hopefully someone who knows more about speakers than I, which is just about anybody, can help me with.

I have Mirage OMD-15 mains and a Mirage OMD-C1 center and a pair of Mirage OS3-Sat speaker in the rear. I want to get a surround speaker but the one that goes with the Mirage speakers is no longer available. It was called an OMD-R and was three sided with tweetera and mid-range speakers.
Something like an Axiom QS-8.

So, I guess my questions would be something like, who makes a line of speakers somewhat compatible with the Mirage OMNI ones? Hopefully, they will have a similar large surround speaker

Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide.

I don't know if you'd be interested, but you can still find those online.

Here is a listing from an online store (that I personally haven't heard of) called the Custom Sound Company for $899/each.

Also, here is listing on eBay for $799 (I don't know if the person has one or two).

Since you aren't gonna have any timbre issues for your surrounds, the speakers you mentioned (QS8) would be a great option and save tons of money but if the budget allows, the links Adam found should fit the bill.

How do you like the ones you have now?

Thanks for the leed! I called and left a message but I suspect that they don't have any in stock but we will see tomorrow. Will let you know. Have contacted the guy on ebay. He is selling one speaker which is not what I am looking for so I am going to pass on it.

Spoke to a gentlemen at a local audio company who suggested Paradigm ADP-590 as a good replacement. Am going to see and listen to them tomorrow night. The Axiom QS-8 style is more what I am looking for if I can't find the OMD-Rs.

I am in the process of gradually replacing a Bose speaker system my wife purchased 5 or 6 years ago. We got an HD TV about a year ago and I been bitten by the concept of better sound for watching it and movies. Right now the Bose speakers are still in the rear. Once I get the Mirage OS3 ones and the surrounds I will pull them. I really like the Mirage speakers in the front and even my wife,who has been critical of this project, grudgingly says that the sound is much better and that she likes it.
