"Mordaunt Short Aviano is a system that demands to be heard and, pound for pound, it's as good as anything in this 5.1 system test." T3 magazine.
The Mordaunt Short Aviano follows on from the enormously successful Avant range and features a raft of technical enhancements from the Mordaunt Short Performance speakers.
The Mordaunt Short Aviano 5.1 is a top quality, fully matched home cinema speaker system. Featuring the latest generation CPC aluminium woofer in all its speakers, the Aviano 5.1 has that characteristic detail and crispness throughout the mid-range and bass that Mordaunt Short has become famous for. Helping the sonic precision and dynamic response even further is a new woofer brace. This internal cabinet bracing not only strengthens the cabinet but also supports the woofer, allowing it to perform to its very best ability. Mordaunt Short has paid particular attention to driver matching for a more cohesive sound. For this reason, the aluminium tweeter features a revised mounting plate for a more seamless integration with the mid-range. The cabinets themselves are incredibly rigid for this class of speaker, internally braced and made from high density MDF. It gives the drive units the best support possible and manages not to contribute its own "voice" to the sound quality in a detrimental way. As you'd expect, high quality, bi-wirable crossovers feature on all speakers and enable you to improve the sound still further.
The Mordaunt Short Aviano 7 subwoofer brings bass into the range. Perfectly designed to match the other Aviano speakers, the Aviano 7 uses advanced technologies for a stunning bass response. Like the rest of the Aviano range, the 7 uses an aluminium bass cone. This 10" cone not only goes deep but also offers a level of control and bass texture almost unheard of in similarly priced paper-coned rivals. To ensure the woofer is kept in check, Mordaunt Short has specified a powerful 175 watt digital amplifier. The cabinet itself is incredibly rigid for this class of subwoofer, internally braced and made from high density MDF. In addition to its class-leading sound quality, the Aviano 7 is impressively efficient. Using less than 1 watt of power in standby mode, the Aviano 7 has been awarded Energy Star certification for its energy efficiency.
In terms of sound quality, the Aviano 5.1 is one of, if not the, best in its class. In terms of dynamic scale, realism of sound, bass depth and timing there's little, if anything, that can keep up at this price.
For a no-compromise 5.1 speaker system, the Aviano 5.1 is a class apart.
