HELP I need Speaker Recommendation? w/set up


"Newbi Here" Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone out there can help me with some speaker recommendations, and the set up situation. I would prefer to mount speakers on the wall, but if it is going to jeopardize the sound, and not get the most out of my equipment, I would rather stay with speakers (on stand). I am setting up a Hair Studio, so with that in mind, thinking about foot traffic and aesthetics of the place. Just trying to bring me and my clients the most pleasant sound possible, and trying to go about it in the best and smartest way i can (on a small budget). The Pre-Amp i am using is an Adcom GFP 565 with Two Rotel RB 980BX, I am also using Transparent Interconnects and thinking about going with Transparent inwall Cable. The Space will be about 800 to 1200 sq ft.
I THANK YOU ALL ahead of time for Recommendations and Feedback and also your help on this situation!
Stay Well, and Good Listening!

I think that it is quite admirable that you are doing this for your customers.

Given the application of the speakers you are looking to purchase, I would highly recommend that you find a Mirage dealer and audition their Omnisat or Omnisat Micro speakers. Omnipolar speakers are a particular strength of Mirage, as you may know. Omnipolars allow you to be pretty well anywhere in a room. You are not tied down to a sweet spot as you are with many other types of speakers. In a commercial setting where you are not always able to be in the sweet spot, omnipolars make a lot of sense. Unlike the big Mirage speakers, the Omnisats are small and intended to be wall mounted. There is even an in-ceiling version called the Omnican. It's sort of like a pot light. I've heard the Omnisats at my local Mirage dealer. I was quite impressed with how the sound was consistent, even if you were walking around the room. You can get further information about them at the Mirage website, www.miragespeakers.com
