Acoustic Energy Refence Series and AE-1 Classic

Dear Friends,

Acoustic Energy Reference Series 1 & 3 has arrived at Audio Basic, and not to forget the legend AE-1 Classic which has improved further from it's original design. This speaker is 100% Made in England and their craftsmanship is awesome.

Acoustic Energy Limited was founded in 1987 and originally based in West London before relocating to its current 15,000 square foot facility in the Cotswolds. In 1988 the AE1 was launched and originally designed to satisfy the needs of the professional audio sector of the market, offering great accuracy, precise stereo imaging, dynamics, and transparency coupled with high power handling and linearity. Due to these product benefits, the AE1 acquired a global reputation with musicians, recording artists and studio engineers.

Subsequently the AE1 won the British Hi-Fi Award for Best Speaker in 1991 and 1992, and acclaim for the Reference Series within the hi-fi press grew world-wide. The hi-fi market rapidly became an integral part of Acoustic Energy's growth.

AE philosophy is simple "To create innovative audio design solutions which employ the latest technology wisely, thoroughly and elegantly."
