About The Acoustic Energy AE100 MK2 Speakers

The Acoustic Energy AE100² is a compact standmount loudspeaker that has been engineered to off­er neutral balance, low-distortion and high power handling with as little cabinet colouration as possible. Combined with wide output slot rear-porting, the AE100’s are extremely flexible loudspeakers for use in any room or position in the home.

The AE100² has been designed with a view to achieving high sound pressure levels from a small enclosure. This is obtained principally through the use of a 5” (130mm) driver built around an ultra-high force motor system that allows for an extremely long throw under complete control... in the best traditions of Acoustic Energy. This is augmented by a slot shaped bass duct which allows for a considerable cross sectional area while negating the issues of the air becoming audible as it moves through the duct. A 1” (25mm) soft dome tweeter featuring Acoustic Energy’s Wide Dispersion Technology completes the driver complement. The cabinet is made from 15mm thick sections of HDF (High Density Fibreboard). Taking design cues from the award winning 500 Series and finished in a choice of satin black or walnut vinyl veneer finishes, the AE100 MK2 is sure to look good wherever you choose to place it while delivering a sound that belies its compact size.

Acoustic Energy 100 Series MK2

The latest adaptation of Acoustic Energy’s globally acclaimed 100 Series features an all-new, innovative design from the ground up…

The new 100 Series MK2 introduces a plethora of evolutionary improvements focused on refining the listening experience. All models (aside from AE108 MK2 Subwoofer) feature Acoustic Energy’s WDT (Wide Dispersion Tweeter) waveguide for improved dispersion, now taking cues from the 500 Series with mid/bass drivers moved closer to the tweeter. The drive units are all-new and designed in tandem to offer seamless integration along with improved response and power handling. Slot ports to the rear of each cabinet reduce chuffing & distortion, thanks to a new tooled vent to further smooth airflow. Finally, as a first at this price point, the 100 Series MK2 uses HDF (High Density Fibreboard) construction to allow thinner cabinet walls with no loss in mass or stiffness – the result is larger internal volume providing deeper bass response for minimal external size increase.  

This elegant, compact yet powerful range of speakers embodies all the qualities Acoustic Energy is renowned for, while taking advantage of everything they’ve learned in their continuous journey of development.
