dynamic speed, tonal sophistication, resolution, and sense of "thereness" that are hall-
marks of Sasha W/P.
Among the technical innovations of the Mezzo:
• The Mezzo sources its midrange driver directly from the ground-breaking
Wilson Alexandria Series-2. With this midrange driver, Dave and the Wil-
son engineers set out to redefine what was possible in cone midrange
technology—and to capture certain qualities of live music heretofore not
achieved in any other design. Their efforts were rewarded. The result was
the Wilson midrange driver. One has to hear the clarity, tonal density and
truthfulness, and dynamic clarity to appreciate the resulting vast improve-
ment in midrange over other designs.
• The tweeter, sourced directly from the Sasha W/P, uses advanced technol-
ogy and material in the area behind the diaphragm. All tweeter diaphragms
are partially acoustically transparent. Any out phase or time-delayed re-
flections that make their way out of the front of the diaphragm is heard and
measured as noise and distortion. The Mezzo tweeter employs proprietary
materials in combination with proven mechanical configurations that ef-
fectively reduce these time-delayed reflections behind the inverted dome,
preventing them from subsequently corrupting the primary wave. As with
Sasha, the Mezzo tweeter excels in all areas of high-frequency perfor-
mance: clarity, dynamic expression, sweetness of tone, and resolution. It
is an excellent companion for the proprietary Wilson midrange driver. The
resulting fabric of tonal beauty woven by these two drivers is both seam-
less and complete—richly portraying instruments as they are heard in life.
• Sasha W/P woofer. The Mezzo sources its woofer directly from the Sasha
W/P. The speed, dynamic alacrity, and tunefulness that are all distinctive
features of the Sasha are in evidence here in similar proportions.
• Adjustable tweeter module design and array geometry designed to address
the challenges of a low-profile loudspeaker. In the main module, Mez-
zo's two woofers are mounted horizontally, flanking the midrange driver.
