I have the Mirage Omnisats in a 5 channel setup and have been quite surprised by the sound they reproduce; for the money...The one turning point I did not factor in when I bought them was the amount of power they need..I have a large space and was using about 100Watts from a medium priced amp. I will now be upgrading my amp to a more powerful and cleaner amp to get the volume I like out of all speakers when playing DVD.....XXX just lacked the dynamics I saw in the movies.....hope this helps a little

Audiogon Community;
I am leaning toward separates in my HT setup, and B&W in-walls.
Right now, I am researching the amplifier power requirements for the system. The room dimensions are 17' x 17' x 7'6". The room volume is ~2,200 cubic feet.
Based on the speaker sensitivity, room size and accoustics and power output relationship I come up with a power requirement of less than 60W per channel to drive the speakers.
Do you agree?
The two subwoofers will be driven off the controller.
Possible Power Amplifier choices include:
Rotel RMB-1066 60W x 6 into 8 Ohms!
Please comment!
