The Alumni 2 satellites from Mordaunt Short benefit from an improved signal path via an upgraded crossover with low saturation inductors and polypropylene capacitors which reduce distortion and improve detail, integration and clarity. The Alumni 2 bookshelf speakers profit from much of the technology present in some of Mordaunt Short’s other loudspeakers such as Avant i and the flagship Performance range. The 25mm aluminium dome tweeter delivers elevated dynamic accuracy and razor sharp resolution while the CPC (Continuous Profile Cone) mid/bass drivers’ clean lines are fundamental to the Alumni 2’s superior audio reproduction. Indeed, the uninterrupted cone surface ensures excellent rigidity and therefore minimal distortion.

One of the most interesting and important aspects of the design is the cabinet: Alumni’s curved shape discourages the build up of standing waves for a cleaner and more realistic sound. Improved internal wadding gives support where needed, inherently strengthens the speaker and most importantly helps critical damping.

Mordaunt Short have produced a real winner with the Alumni 2 bookshelf speakers. With so much technology packed into a speaker as good looking and as well built as the Alumni 2's, it's easy to see why they have been causing quite a stir. Available in two finishes; gloss black or white
