The AE1 was a revelation: a small speaker that delivered the kind of dynamic range, clarity, and bass extension typically reserved for much larger enclosures. Now, decades later to celebrate 40 years of this ground breaking loudspeaker, the \u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic Energy AE1 40th Anniversary Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e brings that legacy into the modern era - with cutting-edge engineering and timeless design.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDesigning the new AE1 was no easy task. Not only was it a design classic but all the original parts have been out of production for some time, so AE had to start from scratch. With the sound of this speaker and its reputation for very high performance already well established, there was no room for wild variation from the original design. Each element had to be crafted to sound the same as the old, and while they smoothed off some of the rougher edges, it was with a very light touch so as not to destroy what was great about the original design. So Acoustic Energy allowed themselves a few modernizations weighed carefully to be at no detriment to the original. The fundamentals of the high mass, high stiffness, straight sided cone driven by high BL motor, housed in a small, strong, heavy cabinet with classic twin front ports, paired to a metal dome tweeter, are still the defining elements of this speaker.  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eREDESIGNED TWEETER\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eA completely new tweeter design was developed specifically to match the performance of the original, which has been long out of production. Featuring a larger 29mm voice coil, it supports a slightly larger aluminum dome to lower distortion through a greater radiating area when compared to the more usual 25mm dome. Whilst the dome profile is ultra-shallow to provide excellent bandwidth, it also features a large rear chamber to keep the fundamental resonance low and help absorb rear energy. Plus, like the original, this tweeter is ferrofluid cooled and damped to give greater power handling, dynamics and lower thermal compression.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eHIGHER EFFICIENCY, LOWER DISTORTION WOOFER\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe new woofer was also developed to specifically match the characteristic sound of the original. The new cone is slightly larger, conforming to modern 125mm woofer standards, whilst the greater radiating area offers slightly higher efficiency, lower distortion and the ability to move more air. The cone design was the key element to the original woofer and fundamental to the original speaker’s success, producing a very natural midrange, great power handling and dynamics for its size. Acoustic Energy retained the straight sided aluminum profile and a little used forming process known as ‘spinning’ as opposed to the more usual pressing method.  The cone itself is then further strengthened by a thick, hard anodized ceramic layer coating on both sides… effectively forming a sandwich. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the trademark aluminum 'pointy' dust cap, the new woofer further features a thermally conductive aluminum voice coil with a very powerful motor structure. One modern improvement was the addition of an aluminum shorting ring in the motor structure. This dramatically reduces the distortion caused by motional variation in the voice coil's inductance. Acoustic Energy designed this woofer around a 5 ohm DCR instead of the original 7 ohms which was partly responsible for its reputation to require higher power amplification to drive it. Therefore, the new AE1s are easy to drive and require less power.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eCROSSOVER\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing inspiration from the luxury 'Signature' version of the original speaker, the crossover uses low order filters and high-quality components to achieve a very natural 'live' dynamic sound.
