7. Using the 9/16" combina-
tion wrench, tighten the
nut snug against the diode
to prevent the spike assem-
bly from coming loose.
8. If required, place the corre-
sponding number of spacer
discs over the bolt.

listening
distances
(away from the speakers) and listening ear heights (measured distances from the floor up
to your ear canal); see Figure 6 on the preceding page. Propagation Delay Correction ac-
curacy of the Mezzo Convergent Synergy has been established and verified at Wilson Au-
dio's R&D laboratory. The tables outlining the set tings for adjustments are in Section 10 of
this owner's manual. The correction tables used in this section are a result of this testing.
For each distance/ear height combination there is a unique alignment geometry. To make
correct in-home setup of the Mezzo Convergent Synergy possible without test equipment,
Wilson Audio has measured the correct geometric PDC (phase delay correction) align-
ment for dif ferent distance/ear height combinations. By measuring the ear height and the
distance from the speaker to the listening position, you will be able to align the system for
your listening position.
Mezzo Convergent Synergy Configurations
The Mezzo Convergent Synergy has been designed to accommodate most any mount-

ing location. The Mezzo has been optimized for use with its purpose-built stand. When
you mount the Mezzo Convergent Synergy in most other locations you will begin to see
more boundary interactions, which may alter the performance of the loudspeaker. Never-
theless, the Mezzo Convergent Synergy will certainly out-perform any other center-type
loudspeaker (with the exception of the Wilson Audio Polaris) regardless of its placement.
Placing the Mezzo Convergent Synergy in any location other than on the its purpose-
built stand will require the Mezzo to be rotated vertically such that precisely faces towards
the listening position. This will allow the Mezzo Convergent Synergy to take advantage of
the propagation delay correction technology (PDC). Simply placing the Mezzo Convergent
Synergy in a location without following the directions below will hinder its performance.
With the correct PDC you will find the vocals and dialogue more realistic and satisfying.
As with any component in your system that of fers increased resolution and detail, a care-
ful setup is required.
There are four dif ferent setup procedures depending on your Mezzo Convergent Syn-
ergy location. The possible Mezzo Convergent Synergy configurations are as follows:
Section 4.4—Setup #1 Mezzo Convergent Synergy on Floor
Section 4.5—Setup #2 Mezzo Convergent Synergy on Stand
Section 4.6—Setup #3 Mezzo Convergent Synergy on Custom Stand or Shelf
Section 4.7—Setup #4 Mezzo Convergent Synergy on the Hourglass Stand
Please proceed to the indicated section for your particular installation for detailed
setup instructions.
Section 4.4—Setup #1 Mezzo Convergent Synergy on Floor
Note: Please read Section 5 — Final Voicing before spiking the Mezzo.
The floor mounted Mezzo Convergent Synergy must be rotated up toward the listen-
ing position. This is done by using a taller spike in the front than in the back of the speaker
