Mordaunt Short


Mordaunt Short is a 45-year old English company. All products are designed in England then crafted in their Asian production facility which allows them to produce high-quality speakers for excellent value. The Carnival series is our favorite inexpensive speaker line. It uses woven composite woofers and soft dome tweeters loaded into elliptical waveguides. Crossovers use polypropylene caps with high-quality inductors. The Carnival 2 received a great review in Stereophile and the Carnival 6 is a wonderful small column we sell for under $500 the pair. The Aviano series adds a 1” metal dome tweeter and CPC aluminum high-speed woofers with upgraded crossovers. It is more detailed with great transparency and dynamics. The Mezzo series adds the patented ATT tweeter with better crossovers and real wood cabinets. The Mezzo 1 with the 175-watt Aviano 10” sub is a killer satellite/sub package that images exceptionally well and offers real full-range performance. Lastly the Performance series is a state-of-the-art design at reasonable prices. The Performance 6 is a killer full-range $8000/pr speaker and the Performance 2 is a great monitor. Call me to discuss our great system package pricing on all Mordaunt Short speakers.
