The inside story
With a rich heritage spanning over forty years, Mordaunt-Short knows what it takes to create the perfect speaker range. Each Aviano model was created at the company’s design centre on London’s Southbank and features a host of proprietary technologies, critical to Mordaunt-Short’s award winning pedigree. Like Aviano, many speakers have impressive showroom appeal. But take a look inside the cabinet – a place most manufacturers would prefer you didn’t – and you’ll discover there’s way more to Aviano than meets the eye!

Take a look inside 1. CPCTM aluminium cone ensures highly predictable driver performance with controlled piston-like movement at lower frequencies and minimal distortion at higher frequencies. Lightweight aluminium is chosen for faithful dynamics. 2. V-Form technology – an innovative driver cone connection to help maintain driver rigidity and results in a bigger, purer soundstage. Varied surround thickness aids pistonic operation and gives genuine timing improvements. 3. High flux density, self shielding neodymium magnet assemblies offer improved sensitivity and better dynamics than conventional 4. Tweeter magnets. Powerful Y30 magnets further enhance Aviano’s woofer. 5.

The tweeter utilises a high temperature voice coil with liquid cooling and damping for controlled high frequency performance and amazing detail. 6. New cabinet and driver bracing design provide ultimate rigidity and support. 7. Purist crossover design - isolate mounted to minimise distortion. Features premium grade components including high saturation 8. Inductors, DVPC (Dual Value Parallel Capacitors) and oversized resistors ensure optimal signal transfer. 9.

press reviews

"One of the all-time great values in sound." Click here for full review Sound + Vision Magazine, USA April 2010 (Reviewed with Aviano 2 bookshelf speakers, Aviano 6 floorstanders, Aviano 7 subwoofer)
"The Mordaunt-Short Aviano is a beautifully engineered product... These speakers distinguish themselves from the pack in that someone with a good ear must have developed them." hometheatermag.com, USA April 2010 (Reviewed with Aviano 1 bookshelf and Aviano 7 subwoofer) “Sublime sound for both music and movies. Flawless build quality and the 175W sub thunders like Thor.” Click here for full review T3 February 2010 “A nice 5.1 system with a very reasonable quality to price ratio.” "Un pack 5.1 qui a fiere allure et un rapport qualité/prix tres raisonnable." Cinéma Chez Soi October 2009 (Reviewed with Aviano 6 floorstanders, Aviano 7 subwoofer and Aviano 2 bookshelf speakers) “The short time that the Mordaunt-Short Aviano’s were with me they gave me a very good impression of the quality the designers of this loudspeaker manufacturer can offer for a relatively low price. Although there is a lot of competition in this class, Mordaunt-Short is not beat, on the contrary even. There is a clear difference between the speakers in this series, and especially the Aviano’s 2 and 8 deliver great quality for money. It is also convenient that the Aviano subwoofers offer so many possible settings." Hi-Fi.nl (NL) October 2009
