About Us

Blank space

Established in 1967, Mordaunt-Short™ is responsible for the development of some of the world’s most critically acclaimed loudspeakers.

From the beginning, Mordaunt-Short has produced loudspeakers of the very highest order which is underlined by that fact that our first ever range enjoyed exclusive distribution through Harrods of Knightsbridge, London.

The very essence of Mordaunt-Short can be found in each and every speaker we create. Whilst we're proud of our heritage and the fact that we’re one of the few remaining British owned and engineered speaker brands, we never rest on tradition. Instead, Mordaunt-Short is always in search of new technologies to take you as close as possible to the music you love.

An incredibly forward-thinking company, Mordaunt-Short produces some of the most technologically advanced loudspeakers available today. All our products are testament to this innovative spirit and style but it is most apparent in models such has Genie and Performance. Our expertise allows us to constantly challenge the status quo – does a speaker really have to be made from wood? Why does it have to be rectangular?

But the most important resource we have, are the people who work for us. With a dedicated team of ten engineers and a purpose-built research and development centre in London, Mordaunt-Short has some of the best resources in the industry.

With an engineering pedigree second-to-none, you won’t be surprised to hear that we design each and every component in our products to our own specifications.

After a lengthy development programme, all Mordaunt-Short products are put before the ultimate test – the human ear. And not just any ear will do. Before you get to listen to our speakers, Mordaunt-Short’s head of acoustic engineering signs off each and every design.

Since its foundation, Mordaunt-Short has produced legendary designs including the Festival, Carnival and Pageant models of the early-Seventies which was followed by the Pearl Edition range of the late-Nineties right through to today’s Performance and Genie ranges. Every one of these models was conceived from one continuing vision - to build the best loudspeaker money can buy, combining engineering excellence, an enthusiasm for innovation and carefully controlled manufacturing processes.
