Mordaunt-Short loudspeakers

Is anyone familiar with the Mordaunt-Short line of loudspeakers? I'm just curious about them and not many dealers sell them. It dates back to the 1980s when I first heard the Carnival line. My friend and I were so impressed so I guess there's always been an interest. Can someone explain the line, the entry level to the higher end? There's the Aviano, the Mezzo, Alumi, Performance etc. Is the Carnival line still being produced?

I'm looking to pick up a pair of 25ti's locally from CL if still available. I seem to prefer a metal dome tweeter in speakers as opposed to rubber/cloth dome tweeters as I just find the metal dome is more natural sounding, but sometimes can sound a little bright if you don't have the proper gear to offset that...only downside to the 25ti's is they only go down to 70 hz so looks like a subwoofer might be necessary...Guppy, glad you really liked the 35ti's...

I see Audio Advisor carries at least one M/S speaker model.

I had a pair of little MS10s that were sweet...inexpensive from Audio Advisor in maybe 2000...kind of a budget Epos with a gold anodized aluminum tweeter with removable (!) screen. I can't remember why the hell I sold those...

You might want to hit up A-gon dealer UnderwoodWally. I think he carries them. He should be able to tell you all about them.
