Mirage Uni-Theater 3-in-1 LCR Speaker – Omnipolar – Glass Stand

$295.00

One aluminum cabinet holding three acoustically isolated channels — each with a 3/4-inch titanium hybrid dome in Mirage’s Omniguide module, a 3-inch woofer and two 3-inch passive radiators. The left and right modules angle outward; the centre fires straight ahead. It is passive, so it needs an AVR with discrete L, C and R outputs. 36.5 inches wide, 19 lbs, with the original glass table stand and wall bracket.

Mirage Uni-Theater – 3-in-1 LCR Speaker – Omnipolar – Glass Stand

The Award-Winning Mirage Uni-Theater is a beautifully engineered all-in-one left, centre, and right speaker solution for flat-panel home theater, earning Sound & Vision scores of 93/100 for Performance, 92/100 for Features, and 90/100 for Build Quality.

The Uni-Theater is one of the most clever and genuinely useful home theater speaker concepts ever brought to market — a single slim aluminum cabinet that houses three fully independent, acoustically isolated left, centre, and right channels, each deploying Mirage’s celebrated Omnipolar technology to fill the entire room with enveloping, directionally accurate sound. For anyone who wants a serious home theater front soundstage but cannot accommodate three separate speakers, the Uni-Theater is a compelling and elegantly executed solution.

Please note that the Uni-Theater is a passive speaker — it requires an AV receiver or three-channel amplifier to drive it, with separate left, centre, and right speaker outputs. It is not a self-powered soundbar and will not connect directly to a television. Buyers should confirm their receiver has dedicated left, centre, and right speaker outputs before purchasing. For those with a compatible AVR already in hand, the setup is completely straightforward using standard speaker wire.

Each of the three independent chambers houses a 3/4-inch pure titanium hybrid dome tweeter mounted in Mirage’s Omniguide module — the same saucer-shaped diffuser used in the Omnisat series — along with an active 3-inch titanium deposit hybrid polypropylene woofer and dual 3-inch passive titanium deposit hybrid polypropylene radiators. The left and right channel Omniguide modules are slightly angled outward to reflect sound toward the side walls, generating a spacious, room-filling stereo image well beyond the physical width of the cabinet. The centre channel fires straight ahead for locked, intelligible dialogue reproduction.

The extruded aluminum cabinet is a significant step up from the plastic enclosures found on competing soundbar-style speakers of its era — it is rigid, acoustically inert, and genuinely premium in feel and appearance. A two-position boundary compensation switch on the rear panel adjusts low-frequency response to optimize performance whether the unit is placed near a wall or in free space. The unit is magnetically shielded for safe placement near a flat-panel display.

This unit includes the original Mirage plate-glass and metal table stand — a beautifully designed accessory that makes the speaker appear to float above its base, and a meaningful added value. The Uni-Theater is also wall-mountable via its included flush-mount bracket if preferred.

As with every component we sell at Radique Audio, this unit has been thoroughly tested before listing.

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.
