Mirage M-290 (c. 1992–1993)
Not much is documented about the Mirage M-290. What survives is mostly equipment-directory entries, not full reviews. A HI-Fi-Stereo-Buyers (1993, p.170) listing confirms it was a 2-way speaker. A more detailed entry in the same publication (HI-Fi-Stereo-Buyers, February 1993, p.113) describes a cone woofer paired with a 1-inch titanium tweeter. The woofer had a rubber surround and the tweeter had a cloth suspension. Power handling was rated at 100 W continuous, frequency response at 45-22,000 Hz, and nominal impedance at 6 ohms. The finish was black-ash vinyl, and the cabinet measured approximately 9 × 16 × 9 inches.
Past that, nothing has turned up. No period review with measurements, no confirmed list price and no production history has surfaced.
