About the AE2 mkII
The Acoustic Energy AE2 mkII is a high-performance, two-way, bass reflex bookshelf loudspeaker featuring dual 9cm (approximately 3.5-inch) metal cone woofers for the low frequencies and a 2.5cm (1-inch) metal dome tweeter. It employs a 3.0kHz crossover with 24dB/octave slopes (early versions) or 3.5kHz in later stages. Key specifications include a nominal impedance of 5.5Ω, sensitivity of 91dB SPL (2.83V/1m), frequency response of 65Hz–18kHz ±2.5dB (extending to 50Hz–22kHz ±4dB), and power handling up to 250W RMS. The cabinet measures 235mm W x 385mm H x 330mm D, weighs 15kg per speaker (32kg packed pair), and supports bi-wiring via dual pairs of 4mm binding posts. Renowned for its dynamic soundstage, airiness, and clarity, it excels across genres like jazz, classical, and rock, pairing well with both tube and solid-state amplifiers.
