The AE100 is a new compact bookshelf/stand mount loudspeaker that exhibits qualities which perfectly embody those of Acoustic Energy. The AE100 has been designed with a view to achieving high sound pressure levels from an extremely small enclosure. This is obtained principally through the use of a 4 inch 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 28mm soft dome tweeter featuring our Wide Dispersion Technology completes the driver compliment. The cabinet is made from 18mm thick sections of MDF. Taking design cues from the award winning Reference Series and finished in a choice of satin black or walnut vinyl veneer finishes, the AE100 is sure to look good wherever you choose to place it while delivering a sound that belies its compact size.
We are pleased to share a new UK reviews with you - HiFi World Magazine for the AE100!
Here are the quotes we like:
AE100 - Conclusion ''The AE100's are a fantastic budget loudspeaker that sound much more expensive than their price. Don't be fooled by their size - they can punch out a tune with great resolution and no sign of strain. They are one of the best gbp200 speakers I have heard and deserve an audition''.

Another week, another review. Today Hi-Fi Choice reveal their findings on the AE100… The quotes below, along with the Recommended badge, will give you a good idea of how they faired.
“Other highlights include a pleasing tonal balance, and the ability to throw images into the room far better than you might expect given its dimensions.”
“…it’s far more open in the midband than many would expect from an entry-level release.”
“The overall effect is great; sounding punchy and articulate with lots of energy and articulation – plus a satisfying sheen.”
