BRISTOL NEWS: Mordaunt-Short celebrates its 40th birthday with Limited Edition Performance 6 speakers

We'll be expecting cake and Champagne from Mordaunt-Short at Bristol this weekend, as the company is celebrating its 40th anniversary.

To mark the occasion, the speaker specialist is unveiling a Limited Edition of its flagship Performance 6 loudspeakers, yours for £4000. Improvements have been made to the crossover and cabinet design.

The crossover has been redesigned with a new PCB and circuitry to improve the amount of detail reproduced, and ClarityCap capacitors are used in all critical parts of the crossover.

And the cabinet uses a new formulation of the original polymer resin material, while the internal cabinet detail has been modified to enhance bass response.

You can see (and hear) the new Performance 6 Limited Edition in room 314 at the Marriott City Centre Hotel in Bristol. The show opens tomorrow (February 22) from 10am and runs to 5pm on Sunday, February 24. Tickets cost £8 (students/seniro citizens £4).
