my first speaker was an MS CARNIVAL 6. Add a couple thousand, I can get an Avant Series which handles both HT and Audio better than the Carnivals.

i'm itching for these babies. where can they be bought? (makati/ortigas area preferred)

Philander · « **Reply #1352 on:** Aug 09, 2008 at 12:45 PM »

Available at 5th avenue. They have branches at most SM Malls and ParkSquare 1

pang kwarto lang mayroon na akong bose 161 for front parang
ganito if will get carnival 2 lipat kong rear yung bose or
get the 3 for may rear?

simonzaide · « **Reply #1358 on:** Dec 06, 2008 at 09:04 AM »

as much as possible your front and center should be of the same brand para magblend sila... i suggest use the ms for ur fronts and center and yung bose mo nlng sorround mo

juanch · « **Reply #1359 on:** Dec 06, 2008 at 11:30 AM »

If you have a bigger budget you'd better go with the Avant.

The Carnival set is kinda bright, more suited for music than movies.
But if you're not maarte it's ok naman.

ivannn · « **Reply #1360 on:** Dec 06, 2008 at 02:36 PM »

go for the avant series sir

pogzz505 · « **Reply #1361 on:** Apr 24, 2009 at 10:56 PM »

guys i'm using Yamaha 995 AVR..
Mordaunt short classic floor standing speakers..
Jamo center..
Dai-ichi rear..
Velodyne sub..

Sir vic of Sights suggested na dapat same brand ang front and center..
Kaso hesitant ako bumili ng mordaunt na center kasi parang walang masyadong nagamit sa mga members dito..happy naman ako sa sound ng mordaunt..for gaming, movies..and sometimes music..

Iniisip ko tuloy kung wharfe na front and center..pati na rin rear ang buy ko..any suggestions..

i suggest to spend a bit more money and go for the polk tsi series. very good value for money. come by the shop so you can check them out. i can give you very good deals on the polk tsi series.

if on a budget, you might be interested in the polk m series. very very affordable.

sige sir i'll try to visit at the shop..

pero bakit parang konti lang nagamit dito ng Mordaunt speakers..

one reason that comes to mind is that mordaunt speakers are not carried by our more popular suking ht stores and because wharfes and missions (currently) are more popular and has better price points.

ganun pala..pero can mordaunt speakers compete with the sound quality of wharfes and missions..or yamaha speakers..

Up ko lang po. I'm just curious. In terms of pricing halos parehas ang pricing ng mordaunt at polk, mission speakers eh... anyone care to comment?

ivannn · « **Reply #1367 on:** Sep 16, 2010 at 03:49 PM »

i think avesco is the local distributor for MS speakers, to audition the speakers, try visiting 5th avenue stores. i believe some SM appliance centers carry some models as well.

Maayos din talaga sila tumunog. Pakinggan mo na lang if they're to your liking.

5th Ave in Shang or Park Square might be able to help you.

I still have the good ol' MS Declaration Series made in UK! sounds good except for the subwoofer.

kemozavi · « **Reply #1370 on:** Sep 17, 2010 at 07:04 PM »

I've had several speakers na.. B&W, AE, Wharf, Mission, Paradigm, Martin Logan, marami sakanila madali ko pagsawaan at pag pinagsawaan binebenta,

yun MS902 ko I had since its release and till now ayaw ko siya ibenta.

siya yung pinaka relaxing/balanse pakinggan FOR ME...

depende rin sa current set of gears mo siyempre, maganda kung consider mo rin sila when purchasing.

nels76 · « **Reply #1371 on:** Sep 24, 2010 at 05:24 PM »

I still have my 912 as fronts and 902 as surround and 905C for Center since 2003.
Good for my type of music - House, Dance, Club.

i do have the MS10i, not the pearl edition, been using it since '03, na bust lang tweeter kaya nkagarahe....magaling din MS, audition lng pra you'll know if it suits your taste.

I've listened to the Mordaunt Short Mezzo bookshelf and floorstanding speakers. They sound really nice with a very open and large soundstage with surprisingly good bass produced by the bookshelf models. If I only could afford it I would have a second system with these.

I have the carnival 5.1 setup speakers for a year now. right now im recalibrating it again using auddesey eq to optimize the sound quality for movies.my AVR is a denon 1610 now find the calibration for the sub returns a -12 db which is a bit low. Does it mean that the Denon audessey finds the sub to load.

Can any recommend the proper way to calibrate these carnival speakers for optimization in audessey.

thanks in advance

After Audyssey (though I am using an Onkyo) I normally add between +4 to +8 for the subwoofer and sometimes I reduce my rears by -2 to keep the front stage more dominant.

I agree. These are indeed excellent (and underrated) speakers.
