Belying its compact size, Mezzo 2 embraces ATT to produce a remarkably expansive sound and stereo image and is the ideal two-channel stereo speaker.
After a lengthy research process, Mordaunt-Short has rewritten the rule book and taken its legendary CPC™ (Continuous Profile Cone) bass drivers to the next level. These combine with a sound deadened driver basket for a superb all round listening experience.
The cabinet’s curved shape discourages the build up of standing waves for a cleaner and more realistic sound. Indeed it is unusual to get this level of performance from such a small speaker and with your eyes closed you’ll think you have a full orchestra or rock group in front of you. In fact to put this theory to the test, Suzi Perry from Channel Five's
Gadget Show pitted the little Mezzos against a £12,000 pair of uber high end KEF speakers and a live musician.
