Mirage MM-6 Miniature High-Performance Subwoofer – Tiny Footprint, Big Sound, Excellent Condition
Experience the engineering marvel of the Mirage MM-6—a subwoofer that defies the laws of physics by delivering deep, impactful bass from a cabinet barely larger than a shoebox. Designed in Canada by the leaders in acoustic miniaturization, this 8-inch cube is the ultimate solution for adding low-end authority to an office, den, bedroom, or condo system without sacrificing floor space. In excellent cosmetic condition and working perfectly, this unit proves that high-performance audio doesn’t have to dominate your room.
The “Impossible” Cube:
The MM-6 is a masterclass in efficient acoustic design. To generate big sound from a tiny enclosure, Mirage utilized a unique three-driver configuration: one active 6.5-inch aluminum woofer driven by a powerful 800-watt digital amplifier (dynamic peak), coupled with dual 6.5-inch passive radiators. This design pressurizes the room and extends low-frequency response down to a solid 42Hz, providing tight, musical bass that blends seamlessly with satellite or bookshelf speakers.
Perfect for Compact Spaces:
At just 8 inches on all sides, the MM-6 is designed to disappear. It fits perfectly under a desk, tucked in a corner, or hidden behind a chair. It is the ideal companion for:
Executive Office Systems: Add weight to jazz or classical music at your desk without clutter.
Bedroom Setups: Enjoy full-range movie sound for late-night viewing without a bulky box.
Gaming Stations: Feel the impact of explosions and engines in a desktop environment.
Condo/Apartment Living: Controlled, articulate bass that enhances the experience without shaking the neighbor’s walls.

Woofers: 1 x 6.5″ (16.5cm) Active Aluminum Driver with Ribbed Elliptical Surround
Passive Radiators: 2 x 6.5″ (16.5cm) Aluminum Passive Radiators

Finish: High-Gloss Black Hand-Rubbed
Dimensions: 8″ H x 8″ W x 8″ D (20 x 20 x 20 cm)
Weight: 10.1 lbs (4.6 kg)
Condition:
This unit is in excellent cosmetic condition. The signature high-gloss piano black finish is deep and reflective, showing virtually no signs of wear. The grille cloth is intact and clean.
Tested & Verified: The amplifier powers on silently with no hum; the signal detection is responsive; and the bass output is clean and distortion-free, even at volume.
Summary:
The Mirage MM-6 is the perfect “problem solver” for audiophiles with space constraints. It delivers a rich, full-bodied foundation to music and movies that belies its diminutive stature. If you want the performance of a traditional subwoofer but only have room for a miniature one, the MM-6 is the undisputed king of the category.

Mirage is a Canadian speaker brand, founded in Toronto in the late 1970s and later built by Audio Products International in Scarborough, in the same factory as Energy. Its bipolar and Omnipolar designs send sound in more than one direction. We carry Mirage towers, satellites, centre channels and subwoofers. We've had more than 110 Mirage listings so far. Every used Mirage here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program.

The Mirage story
Jeff Percy, Jeff Soltysek and Patrick Dempster founded Mirage in Toronto in the late 1970s (1979, according to Stereophile). Kevin Voecks, later of Snell and Revel, did the original designs. Audio Products International of Scarborough, which already assembled Mirage speakers, took the company over in the mid-1980s.
Bipolar. The M-1 of 1987, begun by Voecks and completed by API's Ian Paisley, fired identical drivers forward and backward, in phase. Mirage's engineers worked with the National Research Council's loudspeaker research here in Ottawa.
Omnipolar. The OM-6 of 1997 was the first commercial version of Mirage's Omnipolar idea, and the Omnisat satellite system followed in 2002.
New owners. Klipsch bought API in 2006, and VOXX bought Klipsch in 2011. Later models were made in China; the 2007 OMD-28 was "designed by API in Canada and built in China". Around the end of 2022, Oscar Bernardo, a former API executive, bought the Mirage brand himself to relaunch it.
Which Mirage is which?
Early two-ways (1980s to early 1990s): models owners discuss include the SM-1, 190, 290, M-360 and M-460.
M-series bipolar (1987 to late 1990s): the M-1, M-3, and the "si" models such as the M-1si, M-3si and M-7si.
OM-series Omnipolar (1997 to early 2000s): the OM-6, OM-7 and OM-9, and the OM-5 subwoofer.
Home theatre: FRx (2001), Omnisat and Nanosat satellites (2002 to 2005), OMD (2007) and MX (2009), plus the OMNI towers and Uni-Theater.
Subwoofers: the BPS bipolar subs, the LF-150 and MM-6, and the Nano subwoofers.
Buying used Mirage: what to check
Surrounds. Materials vary by model: some M-series midranges use foam surrounds that turn brittle, while many woofers use rubber. Check the rear-firing drivers too.
Tweeters. Owners report that original M-1 tweeters become fragile and have been unavailable for years. Check that every tweeter plays, front and rear.
Powered woofers and subwoofers. Test the built-in amplifier at volume; owners report failed sub amplifiers with no replacement available.
Finish and pairs. M-series panels are lacquered and some clip off plastic fasteners, so look for damage. The M-1si was built in mirror-image pairs.
Placement. Omnipolar and bipolar speakers sound best well out from the wall.
Everything we list is inspected, tested and serviced as required here, and comes with our warranty.

A tall, narrow bass column meant to stand beside a cabinet rather than in front of it — 8.25 inches across the front and unusually deep at 17, which is the trade: the depth buys back the internal volume the narrow baffle gives away, so a 6.5 inch woofer is properly loaded in a strip of floor barely wider than a hardcover book.
