theyll be similar to those Energys you had before. Mirage/Energy were both owned by the same company before, they have very similar sound and performance.

This is true but the sound is going to be a bit different due to the Mirages with the tweeter configuration with the Omnipolar design.

The OMD 15s and C1 center are great speakers and work together very well. They are very unique in design and as Blu has said will be different than what you are used to, They continue to amaze me in my HT great HT speakers, decent for music but you will have to check that for yourself.

Just a footnote mirages line of speakers are no longer being made. Jamo is going to replace them. In case you didn't know?

Thanks buddy, try to shim up the back of the stand that the C1 is on to just tip it a bit more forward. I mounted my C1 over my screen and it made a huge difference in sound. The thing is with your setup you would not be able to do that easily.

This is correct, if you look at Henry T he just has his pitched a bit more forward than the stand will allow. With mine I have it mounted upside down and pitched on an angle not straight forward. With mine the screen is pretty high so when sitting down the C1 is higher than ear level, hard to explain but the sound is awesome. Some people have mounted the C1 upside down on the ceiling.

Mirage makes the best looking speakers in the world. Especially there sat and Floorstanding speakers. They are very very sexy. Congrats on joining the world best looking speaker company. (I still think audiovox is making a mistake with whole jamo mirage thing)
