About the AE500
The Acoustic Energy AE500 is a two-way stand-mount loudspeaker from the flagship 500 Series. It uses a 125mm carbon fibre mid/bass driver and a 25mm carbon fibre dome tweeter, both developed for higher stiffness and improved self-damping to deliver a smooth, transparent sound. The speaker uses an 18mm Resonance Suppression Composite (RSC) cabinet, a rear slot port, and a carefully designed crossover to support low coloration and controlled bass. The AE500 was launched with an MSRP of £999 per pair in reviews, and is available in Piano Gloss Black, Piano Gloss White, and American Walnut wood veneer finishes.
