Prestige S8, Prestige S10 specifications

Mirage Loudspeakers has long been recognized as a brand synonymous with high-quality audio performance. The Prestige S10 and Prestige S8 speakers are distinguished models that encapsulate the brand's commitment to delivering immersive sound experiences.

The Prestige S10 is an impressive floor-standing speaker that features a three-way design, utilizing a dedicated, high-efficiency 10-inch woofer. This large driver is responsible for producing deep, impactful bass that enhances the overall listening experience. Accompanying the woofer are two 5.25-inch midrange drivers, which deliver vocal clarity and richness, making dialogue and instruments come alive. At the top end, a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter ensures that high frequencies are crisp and detailed, providing a well-rounded auditory experience.

On the other hand, the Prestige S8 is a compact bookshelf speaker that does not compromise on sound quality. It also employs a three-way design but features an 8-inch woofer, paired with a 5.25-inch midrange driver and a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter. Despite its smaller stature, the S8 offers impressive depth and clarity, catering to those who seek exceptional sound in a space-saving format.

Both models incorporate Mirage's innovative technology, including the patented Omnipolar design. This design allows for a 360-degree sound dispersion, creating a more immersive listening experience regardless of the listener's location in the room. This feature is particularly beneficial in larger spaces where traditional speakers may struggle to deliver consistent performance across different listening spots.

Moreover, the Prestige series showcases high-quality cabinet construction, designed to minimize resonance and distortions. The enclosures are crafted from carefully selected materials that enhance the overall rigidity and aesthetic appeal while further improving sound fidelity.

Another notable characteristic of these speakers is their sensitivity rating. With a sensitivity rating of 90 dB, both the S10 and S8 can be driven effectively by a range of amplifiers, allowing for versatility in system configuration.

In conclusion, the Mirage Loudspeakers Prestige S10 and Prestige S8 provide audio enthusiasts with an exceptional balance of power, clarity, and design. Their advanced technologies, committed craftsmanship, and innovative dispersion methods make them a worthy investment for anyone serious about elevating their listening experience. Whether for music, movies, or gaming, these speakers promise to deliver an engaging and rich sonic landscape.
