Thank you for purchasing this Mordaunt-Short product. The Mezzo 9
subwoofer features a new sophisticated Digital Signal Processor (DSP)
preamplifier that allows many adjustments to be made to get the best
possible performance whatever your programme choice, main speaker
system, or listening environment.
The adjustable and pre-settable level, low pass filter slopes and
continuously variable phase allow the Mezzo 9 to be matched to a wide
range of speaker systems. Twin adjustable notch/boost filters allow room
anomalies to be tuned out and a dynamics processing engine allows
either enhancement of dynamics for a more punchy movie experience or
compression/downward expansion for late night use.
A high efficiency 375 watt amplifier coupled to two 8” CPC bass drivers
allow the Mezzo 9 to recreate the bass depth required for both realistic
Music and Movie performances. Separate presets may used to allowing
you to quickly recall your own settings optimised for different listening
requirements.
Finally a combined remote control / Sound Pressure Level meter has been
designed to make setting up the Mezzo 9 simpler and more accurate.
Please do read this guide carefully, as it contains essential information in
getting the very best from your new subwoofer.

Mordaunt-Short Technical Director
