Acoustic Energy 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. The new AE307² will easily integrate within any home décor when placed on bookshelves, stands or wall-mounted.

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. Behind the dome this tweeter uses a neodymium ring magnet to allow space for a large vent in the copper shielded pole which leads to specifically graded sound absorption material terminating the waste energy in a contoured rear chamber. 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 colour-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, minimising phase distortion and preserving the speakers’ musicality.
