Aviano is a complete hi-fi and home theatre speaker series from one of the UK’s most respected loudspeaker manufacturers and combines unprecedented levels of performance, refinement and value.

This impressive seven-strong range comprises a bookshelf, standmount and two floorstanding speakers, a dedicated centre channel design and two equally impressive subwoofers. Aviano scores instantly with a purposeful, muscular yet refined look which comes alive in any living space. Soft organic contours of the front profile combine with exquisitely finished cabinets in carefully chosen hues.

Under the skin, a raft of innovative developments join forces with Mordaunt-Short’s critically-acclaimed audiophile technologies to deliver incredible sonic results.

Key to these is a new tweeter housing which takes cues from the company’s flagship Performance Series. Meanwhile, a thoroughly updated third generation CPCTM mid/bass driver lifts the company’s aluminium driver technology to new levels of refinement and an all-new crossover design guarantees incredible clarity. And providing the ultimate platform for all this technology, a sonically advanced bracing system and internal cabinet assembly increases rigidity to the highest levels yet.

And the result… a speaker range which rewards you with phenomenal performance, sensational value and, most importantly, an immensely enjoyable listen.

Music...
While you might watch the same movie once or twice, chances are you know your music far more intricately and it’s here where you’ll notice the Aviano difference immediately. This is one seriously musical speaker range, offering the most incredible spacious experience, whatever music you’re into.

... and Movies
Carefully developed and tested using the widest possible range of today’s most popular amplifiers, Aviano is guaranteed to offer excellent compatibility with a wide range of electronics. So whether your musical passion happens to be jazz, classical, rock, blues or indeed any other genre, you can be sure it will sound simply amazing.

Thrills, spills, bangs and crashes are what matter most when you’re engrossed in an action movie. Fortunately the new Aviano home theatre range effortlessly delivers detail, excitement, punchy, insightful bass extension and of course, totally accurate sound effects. Mordaunt-Short has been designing true home theatre speaker packages for nearly two decades and each Aviano system sounds like it’s been developed in harmony… and that’s because it has! The front and rear speakers integrate perfectly and critically, the centre and sub interject as needed with precise effects delivering dialogue and lower frequencies with perfect timing.

Aviano 2 features a larger 6½" driver enabling noticeably increased dynamic headroom. Oozing more presence than has ever before been possible from such compact cabinets, Aviano 2 offers a fantastic combination of value and performance.

Aviano is an amazing hi-fi and home theatre speaker series combining unprecedented levels of performance, refinement and value.

100% designed and engineered in the UK, Aviano scores instantly with a purposeful, muscular yet refined look and comes alive in any living space. Soft organic contours of the front profile combine with exquisitely finished cabinets in carefully chosen hues.

The Anatomy of a Mordaunt-Short Speaker

Australian Hifi Review of the Aviano
...simply stunning little loudspeakers that do absolutely everything right, from crossing all those t's to dotting all those i's and everything in between.

Home Theater Review of the Aviano
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.

Hifi.nl Review of the Aviano
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.

Needle Dr Reviews the Aviano 2
Gone are the days when bigger meant better in the world of speakers. Bookshelf models from dozens of brands are scratching and clawing at one another to be the best, which is great news for the consumer. Among the brands fighting for your dollar is Mordaunt Short. WIth a fairly wide range of options, MS is primed to have a solution for just about anyone on the market. The Aviano 2s are snug in the middle of the line, retailing at $495/pair. Able to be fit on just about any speaker stands, or even on a shelf, they're easy to implement into the room. An impressive detail is that they're capable of being biwired. With decent binding posts, and jumpers for those who don't care to biwire, the end user is set to hook them up out of the box. Construction wise, the cabinet is impressively finished, and the speaker is as sharp looking with the grill on as it is off. The Aviano 2 sports a 6 1/2" woofer and a 1" aluminum tweeter. Vacant of the edgy sound that metallic tweeters often times produce, the Aviano 2s sound smooth and refined. The most surprising aspect of the sound is definitely the bass. Though the Avianos are bookshelf speakers, you won't feel the need for a subwoofer. To say the least, the Aviano 2s are more than worthy of your consideration.
