Acoustic Energy introduces 500 Series loudspeakers
Announcing its top-tier series with the £1,000 AE500 two-way standmount (pictured) and £2,300 AE509 floorstander, the latest range to join Acoustic Energy's rapidly expanding lineup introduces its first carbon fibre drivers. Boasting a newly developed 25mm tweeter partnered with 125mm mid/bass drivers, the lighter driver material offers a step up on the pistonic power and accuracy of its popular ceramic/aluminium drivers with improved self-damping.
MD Mat Spandl comments: “We have spent considerable time developing the carbon fibre transducers and perfecting our unique cabinet technology. The results have been proven and I’m confident we’ve developed a new flagship range with exceptional sound, build and value.” Available in high-gloss black or white or walnut wood veneer finishes, cabinet construction borrows from its Reference Series with special attention to further reducing resonances. Metal supports are supplied with the floorstander for stability and room decoupling, while support stands are available for the AE500 as part of a speaker and stand package priced at £1,200.
