The Mordaunt-Short Avant™ 900i Series is a sophisticated and striking line-up which look like standard box speakers but refine existing and proven speaker technologies as well as introducing a raft of pioneering new materials and technologies.

Many Avant floorstanders are fitted with a removable plug to allow ballast to be added for even richer bass performance and a pacier sound. We recommend the use of iron filings, ball bearings, or oven-dried sand.

The Avant range of loudspeakers pioneer our proprietary Continuous Profile Cone (CPC™) technology and a new driver design which employs a unique radial ribbing to guarantee excellent critical rigidity at the cone edges. This results in more effective sound quality and reproduction even at high volume from all Avant loudspeakers.

The sleek floorstanding 906i presents a stunningly powerful and controlled low frequency performance. Its 2.5 way design delivers a presentation of impressive clarity from a generously proportioned yet elegant cabinet.

Designed at the company’s UK research and development facility, these advanced loudspeakers house a raft of third generation technologies. Revised drivers have been re-voiced to deliver improved high frequency response, as well as greater clarity and detail from the midrange and bass.

For the most acoustically deadened enclosure possible, the cabinets have been remodeled with heavily revised internal bracing to strengthen the already sturdy cabinet assembly. A new terminal panel offering easier connection of speaker cables and new bullet terminals – directly descended from our flagship Performance speakers – also feature across this new series.

Unlike some manufacturers, Mordaunt-Short doesn’t stop designing its products just because they’re sonically perfect. We also care passionately how our speakers will look in your home. Subtly contoured, all Avant 900i models feature satin aluminum silver baffles, elegant feet combining spikes and come in stunning contemporary finishes to complement any home. Continuing this tradition, a stunning Calvados option joins the current elegant Honey Maple and black finishes.
