Mission M-Cube 5.1 Home Theater Speaker System, Ivory
Marketing description is not available.
A home theater speaker system that truly looks as good as it sounds, Mission's M-Cube 5.1 package is a must for the discriminating movie and music fan. The M-Cube system, which comes with five satellite speakers and a powerful 250-watt subwoofer, was engineered using distributed mode loudspeaker (DML) flat-panel technology, which combines wide-ranging acoustics with freedom in aesthetic design. As a result, Mission had the flexibility to team with British designers Seymour Powell to create a compelling cube-shaped housing that measure 3.5 inches in each direction. The compact speaker size is perfect for wall or ceiling mounting (three speaker brackets are included), or for placing on a bookshelf near the main listening area (Mission also included two attractive floor stands for the front speakers, which fit discreetly on either side of the TV). The headliner, though, is the elegant ivory color and the listener's choice of olive-, ruby-, or umber-colored fabric wraps. The wraps fit tightly around the sides, letting you tailor the speakers' design to your personal taste and furniture style. The speakers' offer more than just a pretty face, however. Thanks to Mission's advanced NXT driver panels, you can point the speakers in any direction and still enjoy the same clarity and volume level. In fact, the audio is so smooth, pure, and balanced that you can position the speakers anywhere in the room without suffering any ill effects. The subwoofer, meanwhile, features twin high-powered 8-inch bass drivers and a high-efficiency 250-watt amplifier, which combine to deliver rich and robust low-frequency effects. The sub's user controls are also neatly positioned on the top panel rather than hidden around the back, letting the user easily adjust the crossover and volume level. And should listeners want to add an extra satellite, they can use the six-channel input on the sub's rear. The system's overall frequency response (with subwoofer) is an impressive 28 Hz to 30 kHz, with a compatible amp load of 30 to 150 watts. It's the perfect system for listeners who value style as much as sound, and those who don't want the hassle of large, space-hogging speakers. In addition to the stands and brackets, the M-Cube comes with all the necessary speaker cables and three wraps for each satellite cube. What's in the Box Five satellite speakers, subwoofer, three wall-mount brackets, 15 speaker wraps, three 23-foot speaker cables, two 52.5-foot speaker cables, one 16.5-foot umbilical cable, user's manual.

Mission M-Cube 5.1 Home Theater Speaker System, Ivory Reviews
I left the radio on when I went to work. You can't believe how loud these cubes go without distortion and the sub keeps right up. These speakers are ready to go right out of the box with everything you need to hook them up: cables, stands and wall mounts included. I would say if your into heavy bass lines this is not your system. NXT Flat Panel tech sounds different than what your use to hearing, but in a good way. So the sub has to play more of the mid and low range. The difference is that the crossover is set much higher, over 250hz.
I recomend you follow the manual and give them a "break in period" of a week or so, because the sound did mellow a little bit. I have owned sub/sat systems from Klipsch, KEF, and B&W and while the sound is different from all of them, I'm sure I will have these a long time. I purchased the Ivory color system and it goes fine with my siver components and Plasma, The color bands are kind of cool to change up the look of your room. After that I let them rip. The "sweet spot" really is much larger than any sub/sat system I have heard. What Mission gives you in the M-Cube is the best looking sub/sat system out there with high end build and high end sound.
But the M-Cube sound is crystal clear and this system plays loud.
