Item Description
Warranty Period

The Mezzo 1 proves that Mordaunt-Short’s trademark sound can be delivered from the smallest of cabinets and offers a taste of genuine high-end hi-fi at a more than attainable price.

Mezzo 1 Compact Front / Rear Bookshelf Speaker Features

  • Curved cabinet design to reduce standing waves
  • All new Aspirated Tweeter Technology (ATT™)
  • Latest generation 5.25” CPC™ (Continuous Profile Cone) mid/bass drivers
  • 25mm aluminium dome tweeter which is light but incredibly rigid to reduce distortion
  • Sound deadened driver baskets for low distortion
  • Audiophile grade components throughout
  • Easily removable magnetic grilles for an invisible fit with contrasting finishes

The ATT tweeter is featured in its most compact cabinet to date and coupled with a 5¼" driver, this compact bookshelf speaker offers deep and rich performance as well as an impressively large sound stage.

Mezzo 1 was designed with two specific purposes in mind; stereo and to act as a satellite or rear effect speaker in a home theatre system and fits neatly into any listening environment.

Mezzo 1 Compact Front / Rear Bookshelf Speaker Reviews

AV Max (India), June 2009
"The Mezzo 1, with its controlled and extremely smooth sound will simply pull you into a world of its own."

Sound & Image (Australia) April 2009
"Mordaunt-Short's Mezzo home theatre speaker system sounds excellent, looks absolutely gorgeous, and is engineered (especially the subwoofer) to ensure that you can extract the highest performance of which it is capable."

Les Années Laser(France) March 2009
"After tests, it seems that this complete package offers a very precise sound, it’s exceptional."

Hi-Fi World January 2009
"Stereo staging was open and spacious... The tweeter is so smooth and clean I also found myself able to turn volume up without having to cringe. Silky mid and treble make these loudspeakers unusually distinctive."

T3 September 2008 (Reviewed with Mezzo 5 centre, 6 floorstanders and 9 subwoofer)
"The stand out element from this collection of audiophile delectableness is Mordaunt-Short's new Mezzo. For the price, we can't think of anything that beats it. The curved cabinet prevents soundwaves from building up, thus creating a crisper, clearer sound."

Home Cinema Choice September 2008 (Reviewed with Mezzo 5 centre, 6 floorstanders and 9 subwoofer)
"I have little hesitation declaring that this is an ideal home cinema package for a buyer with audiophile sensibilities... a serious system for lovers of both music and movies."

About Mordaunt-Short's Mezzo Series

In 2004, something of a revolution took place at Mordaunt-Short. The legendary loudspeaker manufacturer produced the flagship Performance model which re-wrote the rule book and used some truly groundbreaking technologies never before seen in the hi-fi world. Performance has since won countless awards around the globe and is considered to be a modern classic.

Many of Performance’s most significant features have now trickled down to the company’s new range – Mezzo. All this means that true hi-fi bliss is available to a wider audience, most notably you and all at a phenomenally affordable price.

Comprising a full loudspeaker series and a blend of scintillating sound and truly graceful aesthetics, Mezzo affords you the opportunity to experience music and movies as those involved intended, and what can be better than that?
