Hello.

Apparently the general rule in German is that "ph" sounds are generally spelled with an "f". Note that this is not a rule, but is a good general assumption to make.

Sooooo......Mirafone would be a more "traditional German" spelling, while Miraphone would be "Americanized".

Don't know this for a fact, but it's kindof what I would think.
