Overload Protection Circuit (OPC)

The MIRAGE Overload Protection Circuitry (OPC) protects the amplifier from being overdriven and the subwoofer from over excursion of the woofer cone thus ensuring years of safe and reliable performance.

Care of your Subwoofer

To maintain the beautiful finish on your new MIRAGE subwoofer, from time to time, gently wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth to remove any dust or stains.

During normal conditions, your new subwoofer can be left on continuously without any problems. However, if you plan to leave the subwoofer unused for an extended period of time, we recommend that you unplug it.

Trouble Shooting

Should you experience a problem with your subwoofer, here are some helpful suggestions to follow before you seek service.

Verify that the subwoofer is plugged in and the power outlet is active.

Verify that the power switch is on.

Verify that the subwoofer is receiving an input signal from the source. This may involve testing your speaker wire or low-level connectors.

Check that the controls such as volume and crossover have been properly set.

Verify the low level input you are using. Subwoofer controls are bypassed when using the Xover input.

If the subwoofer remains on, even when the system is turned off, this is usually a sign that the wire being used is picking up an electrical signal from another wire or appliance. Try rerouting the wire or make sure you’re using a shielded cable.

The following conditions require service from a qualified technician:

Damaged power cord.

If the subwoofer does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.

The unit has been exposed to water.

The cabinet or circuitry is physically damaged.

LF-150, LF-100 specifications

Mirage Loudspeakers has long been synonymous with high-quality audio performance, and their LF-100 and LF-150 models take that reputation to new heights. These subwoofers are engineered for audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts who desire deep, powerful bass without sacrificing clarity and precision.

The LF-100 represents an entry-level marvel that packs a punch. Equipped with an 8-inch woofer, it boasts a frequency response that extends down to 36 Hz, allowing for a deep and resonant bass experience. Coupled with an integrated 150-watt amplifier, the LF-100 delivers impressive power for its size, ensuring that all audio nuances are captured with precision. The inclusion of Mirage’s proprietary Bass Reflex design enhances its performance by minimizing distortion while maximizing output.

On the other hand, the LF-150 takes things a step further with its larger 10-inch driver, which brings the frequency response down to a remarkable 28 Hz. This model features a robust built-in 250-watt amplifier, providing users with even more headroom for those explosive movie moments or the deep notes of music genres like hip-hop and orchestral music. The LF-150 also employs the same Bass Reflex technology, ensuring that every note is rendered with the detail it deserves.

One of the standout features of both models is their flexible connectivity options. They can easily integrate into various sound systems, thanks to line-level inputs and speaker-level inputs, allowing for seamless integration with both passive and active audio setups. Additionally, the adjustable crossover frequency allows users to tailor their systems to their specific listening environment.

Both subwoofers come with a sleek, modern design that allows them to fit seamlessly into any home décor. With a rugged construction that includes a front-firing port, they offer not just performance but also aesthetic appeal.

In summary, Mirage Loudspeakers' LF-100 and LF-150 subwoofers deliver powerful bass performance backed by advanced technologies, making them excellent choices for anyone looking to elevate their audio experience. Whether you choose the compact LF-100 or the robust LF-150, both models promise to immerse you in rich soundscapes that will make your audio experience highly enjoyable.
