WILSON AUDIO Mezzo Owner's Manual page 11

Achieving near perfect driver-alignment at the listening position requires

the adjustability of the tweeter by changing its relative position in relation

to the midrange and woofer drivers, such that all drivers' acoustic centers

are equidistant from the listener. The tweeter module is adjustable via a

provided chart according to ear height and listening distance—and for a

variety of Mezzo installation strategies. Whether the Mezzo is installed

directly on the floor, on one-of-two custom designed stands, or in custom

cabinets, the Mezzo's drivers can be properly aligned to accommodate

these scenarios.

• Crossovers. The Mezzo crossover features technology adapted from the

Sasha W/P as well as the Series 2 Alexandria, and the MAXX Series 3. The

goal was to reduce propagation-delay jitter and to lower the noise floor.

Mezzo's overall resolution, intertransient silence, dynamic speed and nu-

ance are nearly identical to the Sasha W/P.

• "S" Material midrange baffle. S-material is a relatively new enclosure com-

posite designed in conjunction with the Sasha W/P project. The S-material

baffle reduces measurable and audible noise and coloration in the critical

midrange. Wilson's proprietary X-material is used in the balance of the en-

closure walls, continuing Wilson's practice of building ultra-low resonance

cabinets.

• Two stands. The Hourglass Stand features a solid front plinth, which allows

for 2π Steradian support of the midrange and woofer drivers, resulting in

more linear and impactors performance in the upper bass and lower mid-

range. The second optional stand features an adjustable pedestal ideal

for customizing center channel placement in relationship to large cinema

screens.
