Its all-new mid-woofer blends paper and coconut husk into a 120mm cone that delivers a smooth, natural, refined response while keeping the punch and pace Acoustic Energy is known for from its traditional aluminium drivers. The design comes straight out of the company's flagship Corinium project. Partnered with it is a newly developed 29mm soft dome tweeter, also derived from Corinium, that handles high frequencies with an open, delicate character and is tonally matched to the mid-woofer for even integration across the audible range. It extends to 29kHz, and its WDT waveguide gives low baffle diffraction and a wide listening sweet spot at higher frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eConstrained-Layer RSC™ Cabinet\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/acoustic-energy-ae300-2-grilleoff-white.jpg?v=1780600222\" alt=\"Acoustic Energy AE300² in silk-touch matte white with the grille removed, on a stand in a modern room\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA first at this price point, the AE300² uses the constrained-layer RSC™ cabinet construction that Acoustic Energy pioneered in its Reference Series nearly fifteen years ago. The slimline 18mm MDF and bitumen enclosure is engineered to be inert, significantly reducing cabinet radiation so the drivers can work without interference from the box around them. The payoff is pure, uncolored sound from a cabinet that stays quiet while the music plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSlot-Loaded Rear Port\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slot-shaped duct port on the rear of the cabinet augments the bass output and has been carefully developed to reduce the effect of air turbulence. That tuning keeps the low end clean and controlled rather than boomy, even as the AE300² reaches down to 42Hz. Because the port fires rearward, the speakers like a little breathing room from the wall behind them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSound Character\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AE300² favors accuracy over exaggeration. The paper\/coconut-fibre cone delivers fast, detailed midrange without the hardness that can come from metal drivers. Bass is tight and controlled rather than boomy, and the soft dome tweeter extends to 29kHz without becoming fatiguing. These are speakers that let you listen for hours without ear fatigue, revealing more detail as your system improves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSilk-Touch Finishes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/acoustic-energy-ae300-2-lifestyle-black.jpg?v=1780597071\" alt=\"Acoustic Energy AE300² in silk-touch matte black with grille on, on a stand in a modern living room\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AE300² comes in walnut or newly developed silk-touch matte black or matte white, each with screen-printed logos, color-matched trims, and premium grille fabrics matched to the finish. The slim magnetic grilles fit cleanly with no visible hardware. With clean, uncluttered lines and a slimmed-down cabinet, the AE300² settles easily into modern décor on a pair of stands or a bookshelf, carrying the look and presentation discerning Acoustic Energy owners have expected for over 35 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore in the Acoustic Energy 300 Series\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AE300² is the compact stand-mount in Acoustic Energy's 300 Series, which carries the same Corinium-derived drivers and constrained-layer RSC™ cabinets across every model.
