best done by using the round brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner hose. Gently vacuum
the front surface of the grill. Be careful not to apply too much pressure. Do not use a hard
plastic attachment against the grill. The grill cloth is stretched tightly over the grill frame.
Too much pressure or use of a hard plastic attachment could cause the grill material to tear,
especially in the corners.
Often Wilson speaker owners desire to change the look of their listening room by
changing the color of their speaker grills. In addition to basic black, Wilson Audio offers
a variety of grill colors to match most WilsonGloss finishes. Contact your local dealer for
grill cloth samples or to order replacement grills for your Mezzo Convergent Synergy.
Break-in Period
All audio equipment will sound best after its components have been broken in for
some period of use. Wilson Audio breaks in all woofers and mid-range drivers for approxi-
mately 12 hours. All drivers are then tested, calibrated, and matched for their acoustical
properties. In your listening room, expect 25 to 50 percent of break-in to be complete after
two hours of playing music at normal listening levels. Ninety percent of break-in is com-
plete after 24 hours of playing. Playing a CD on repeat overnight can accomplish this task
quickly. Wilson Audio recommends chamber music for this task.

Dog. Even the best materials are not suited to all aspects of enclosure construction. There-
fore, like all Wilson loudspeakers, the Mezzo Convergent Synergy is constructed of several
