Give your iPod™an ego!
Personal audio doesn't have to be just personal
anymore. The AE Music system brings big-scale
high fidelity sound to MP3 players, multi-media
phones and even hand held game devices.
The Aego M-System builds on the strengths
of the award winning Aego 2, offering a pair of
heavy-alloy satellite speakers and a compact
subwoofer for a full range sound that embodies
AE's sound quality principles. The sleekly styled
satellites have a funky rounded design, with a
smooth treble and potent amplifiers that are built into the
subwoofer to drive all three loudspeakers. The package gives room-filling
sound from devices like the iPod™, PSP™ or MP3 mobile phones.
With just one cable the M-System turns any personal music device into the
heart of a home entertainment system. In the living room, in the bedroom,
away at college or simply for a spontaneous party, the M-System delivers a
big sound from the smallest devices. Better still, the M-System's gorgeous
looks, high quality sound and plug and play simplicity won't cost a fortune
as it remains just as affordable as the best selling Aego 2.
• Easy to set up and use
• Hi-fidelity, high volume sound
• Instant home entertainment
• Big hi-fi sound from the smallest devices
• Outstanding value for money

WORLD
FIRST

Technical innovation at an
affordable price
Time Aligned driver layout technology provides the
new Linear Series the high fidelity edge in mid-
price loudspeaker systems. By integrating high
and low frequency drivers within a computer-
sculpted baffle, Linear loudspeakers produce
a perfect frequency response and a sweeter,
more integrated sound than any other full size
loudspeaker at the price.
From the compact Linear One to the mighty
floorstanding Linear Three, the range embodies
Acoustic Energy's signature coherence, power and
passion. The reflex-loaded cabinet and high-efficiency
alloy cone drivers offer bass down to 30Hz and room-filling sound with even
modestly powered amplifiers. The dedicated Linear Centre is timbre-
matched to the main stereo speakers for home cinema use and high peak
power handling across the range is ideal for today's potent AV amplifiers.
The Linear line-up is complete with the substantial Linear subwoofer. This
neatly styled sub incorporates a downward facing 220mm driver and
200Watt amplifier in a sealed box for lightning fast bass response and tight
control of low frequency effects.
• Time aligned technology
• Affordable 'high-end' design
• Reflex loaded cabinets
• High power handling
• Sumptuous piano black finish
Available: Winter 2005
Linear Series
Sumptuous style meets class-
leading home cinema sound
In a sea of compact home cinema loudspeaker
systems, Acoustic Energy's Aego Theatre
System leads the way in performance and
design. From the curved alloy cabinets, that
promote low resonance and negate internal
standing waves, to the lustrous gloss black
finish, the T-system is the perfect balance of
form and function for the home.
The five matched satellite speakers use AE
designed bass drivers and tweeters to produce a
rich and well balanced sound that integrates smoothly
with the matching subwoofer. Twin 200mm drivers powered by a 200Watt
amplifier in a sealed cabinet ensure that the T-System subwoofer offers both
thunderous low frequency effects and the lightning fast bass response
demanded by music reproduction.
With heavyweight build quality and high-end components used throughout,
the T-System sets a new standard in compact home cinema loudspeaker
packages, while remaining competitively priced. The T-system is supplied with
compact wall brackets. Matching optional stands are also available soon.
• Stylish 5.1 speaker system
• AE design two way satellites
• 200Watt, twin driver subwoofer
• Piano black or gloss white finish
• Wall brackets supplied for ease of placement
Available: Winter 2005

For those who want the style and quality of
Acoustic Energy's Aelite loudspeaker series but
just don't have the space, the answer is the
new Aelite On-Wall. This high performance

Aelite Series Black Ash, Birch or Cherry real wood veneers. Alternatively, a
silver baffle option is also available for silver flat-screen TVs. The Aelite On-
Wall has been voiced to integrate with any of the Aelite models, making
the 2005/6 Aelite Series the most versatile range of quality loudspeakers
on the market.

Return of the ultimate
mini-monitor
It's 18 years since the Reference AE1 first wowed
reviewers and became the audio-industry
benchmark for compact loudspeaker design.
To celebrate, the AE1 is back for 2006 in its
completely original form. Designed from the
outset as a semi-professional monitor,
painstaking attention to detail in the design
and construction of cabinets, crossovers and
baffles ensure the new AE1 Classic reproduces
complex, dynamic material as faithful as the award
winning original.
Despite its diminutive size the AE1 Classic offers the soundstage, depth and
breadth of much larger loudspeakers thanks to its innovative metal drivers
and reflex ported cabinet. The extremely rigid design and high power
handling creates a sophisticated blend of clarity, speed and dynamics that
once again sets the standard for small box loudspeakers in both the studio
and the home.
• 25mm magnesium alloy tweeter
• 90mm alloy bass driver
• 200Watts power handling
• Textured black finish
