Acoustic Energy 300 Series

The new 300 Series – a complete redesign.

Our new 300 Series marks a milestone in loudspeaker design. It proudly stands on the shoulders of the Corinium project, utilising its insights to elevate our mid-product range to a level unequalled at the price. No single component has been shared with the previous 300 Series, showcasing a completely new acoustic and aesthetic design from the ground up. This transformative venture has redefined our understanding of speaker design, highlighting what truly matters in achieving exceptional sound quality.

Our all-new mid-woofer, crafted with a blend of paper and coconut husk, delivers a smooth, natural and refined response, embodying warmth and clarity while retaining the punch and pace of our old aluminium cone. This groundbreaking new driver ensures consistent sonic performance across the range. Partnered with a newly developed soft-dome tweeter derived from our Corinium project, it offers open, delicate and natural high frequencies, tonally matching with the mid-woofer to enable seamless integration across the audible range.

A first at this price point, the new 300 Series features constrained-layer RSC™ (Resonance Suppression Composite) cabinets pioneered in our Reference Series nearly 15 years ago. This advanced construction significantly reduces cabinet radiation, allowing the drive units to perform at their best without enclosure interference, ensuring pure, uncoloured and natural sound.

The 300 series doesn’t just sound good; it looks good too. Our design team have created an aesthetic that blends into modern interiors with subtlety and elegance, including bespoke trims and grilles for each finish creating a more harmonious design language. The cabinets have been slimmed down as much as possible while not adding depth, and in the case of the AE307² transformed to an ultra-shallow sealed enclosure with passive radiator, adding wall-mounting versatility.

In line with latest furniture trends, we’ve moved away from high gloss finishes of the previous 300 Series and chose a newly developed, modern and highly durable ‘silk-touch’ matte material with colour-coordinated trims, solid aluminium feet (on floor standing models) and matching premium grille fabrics. The result is a fresh design statement which remains distinctly Acoustic Energy.

AE300-walnut-resize

AE300²

The AE300² is an all-new compact stand-mount loudspeaker suitable for small to medium sized rooms. Featuring new cabinet design and drivers, performance has been considerably improved in all areas whilst maintaining the same competitive pricing as the previous model.

The AE300² utilises brand-new paper/coconut-fibre bass-mid drivers which were developed using research derived from the CORINIUM project. These drivers, along with an all-new soft dome tweeter are housed in an inert, slimline 18mm constrained-layer RSC™ MDF/bitumen cabinet – offering a significant step up in both audio and material quality at this price point. The slot shaped duct port on the rear of the speaker augments the bass output and has been carefully developed to reduce the effect of air turbulence with a clean, undistorted bass performance.

The cabinet is available in a choice of walnut or newly developed ‘silk-touch’ matte black or white finishes featuring screen-printed logos with trims and grilles which are colour matched for each finish. The new AE300² will easily integrate within any home décor when placed on speaker stands or bookshelves.

AE307² (Walnut)

AE307²

The AE307² is an all-new, versatile LCR design loudspeaker suitable for small to medium sized rooms and home theatre applications. Featuring new cabinet design and drivers, performance has been considerably improved in all areas whilst maintaining the same competitive pricing as the previous model.

The AE307² utilises a brand-new paper/coconut-fibre bass-mid driver which was developed using research derived from the CORINIUM project. This driver, along with an all-new soft dome tweeter are housed in an inert, slimline 18mm constrained-layer RSC™ MDF/bitumen cabinet – offering a significant step up in both audio and material quality at this price point. The sealed box design utilises a passive radiator to allow wall-mounting in vertical or horizontal orientations. An optional, angled, desk stand is also available to offer theoptimum listening position within home theatre installations.

The cabinet is available in a choice of walnut or newly developed ‘silk-touch’ matte black or white finishes featuring a screen-printed logo with trims and grilles which are colour matched for each finish.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

TWEETER

The 300 Series features a new soft dome tweeter developed from the Corinium project. This tweeter offers exceptional speed, clarity, and low distortion, perfectly matched with our new mid-woofer. Enhanced with the latest WDT waveguide, it ensures low baffle diffraction at crossover frequencies and a wide listening sweet spot at higher frequencies, delivering an open, delicate, and natural treble.

DRIVERS

Discover the newly-developed paper/coconut husk bass-mid drivers in our 300 series, designed for a smooth, natural response. The all-new mid-woofer delivers a warm, natural sound with crystal clarity and dynamic detail. Reinforced with coconut fibers, the cone offers impressive stiffness and reduced breakup modes. The motor structure includes an extended copper pole shield to lower midrange distortion, while a non-conducting voice coil former guarantees impressive bass and dynamic range. Used consistently across the range, this mid-woofer is reinforced in the floor-standing AE320 speaker by two 140mm bass drivers, crafted to the same high standards.

CABINET & DESIGN

The new 300 Series benefits from the same advanced RSC™ cabinets found on our flagship Corinium and range topping 500 Series speakers. This composite material significantly reduces cabinet radiation compared to traditional MDF or Plywood construction, allowing the drive units to perform without interference. This technology is concealed within a design that blends seamlessly into modern interiors with subtlety and elegance. Slimmed-down cabinets and a shift from high gloss to a modern, ‘silk-touch’ matte material with color-coded trims, grilles, and aluminium feet on the floor-standing models.

CROSSOVER

Drawing from the techniques developed during the Corinium project, we’ve significantly reduced distortions in loudspeaker crossover design. By adopting a holistic approach to the woofer, tweeter, and cabinet, we created a crossover filter that offers a lighter touch, minimizing phase distortion and preserving the speakers’ musicality.
