AE1 MkIII SE

Special drivers, special crossover, special cabinet...

The AE1 Mk III Special Edition is the latest evolution of the classic, multi award winning AE1 - a speaker that set the benchmark over two decades ago and continues to evolve.

Using the lastest technology and materials, the AE1 Mk III SE design has been honed and perfected to create the best small stand-mount speaker AE has ever created. Offering Acoustic Energy's core values of rhythm, timing and dynamic power handling, the new AE1 Mk III SE brings even greater tonal accuracy and even lower colouration to the AE1 design.

Being made in strictly limited quantity - just 250 pairs for worldwide distribution, this exclusive loudspeaker is offered in two* high-end finishes: eight-layer, hand finished Piano black or Cherry real wood veneer.

*For discerning customers looking for bespoke finishes - the AE1 MkIII SE can be custom painted in any high-gloss colour for a premium.

UK design and build the AE1 Mk III SE uses a heavily braced 18mm MDF cabinet that is lined with 4mm steel plate using a specially manufactured damping glue. This creates an incredibly stiff and well damped enclosure. The 12mm thick baffle plate is milled form a solid aluminium block, providing the stiffest mount for the custom woofer and tweeter assemblies.

The bass driver couples AE’s signature spun-alloy cone, famed for its pace and accurate LF delivery, with a die-cast magnesium alloy chassis chosen for its strength and rigidity. The motor assembly uses twin neodymium magnets and a 32mm voice-coil for unsurpassed speed and power handling. This is coupled with a 38mm ring-radiator tweeter with a frequency response out to over 40kHz, chosen for its remarkable low distortion throughout its operating range.

The AE1 MkIII crossover has been completely redesigned for the SE model. Implementing a ‘less is more’ philosophy, the number of components in each crossover has been reduced from 13 to just 6.
