Acoustic Energy is proud of the 24-pound speaker enclosure. The reflex port is newly located at the rear to eliminate audible turbulence. The MDF cabinet’s internal walls are lined with anti-resonant steel plating with strategically placed tensioned steel cross braces said to reduce cabinet distortion to the vanishing point.

1.26-inch “Ring-Dome Radiator” tweeter featuring a neodymium magnet. This “custom-built and Acoustic Energy designed” doped fabric diaphragm tweeter features a metal chassis, which is said to be directly interfaced with the aforementioned alloy baffle for low vibration.

Fascia constructed of a polished 10mm-thick aluminum billet (that’s almost a half-inch thick) that looks great and is claimed to serve several functions. First, it offers an acoustically inert platform from which to launch the waveform. Second, it acts as a heat sink wicking away damaging thermal energy from the mounted drivers. Extremely smooth and detailed with a robust and fast sounding bass.

Seldom  seen for sale, in absolutely mint condition and has been unused / storage for well over 8 years approximately. There is a soft dimple (NO DAMAGE and Does not effect its performance) since it was there when I purchased it around 9 years ago. Simply trying to be as transparent and clear as possible.

The speakers is one of the best monitors out there. Stunning reviews globally and has a sonic “elecrtrostatic” type of resolution as reviewers agree upon.

Retailed for US$3500 to US$4000 pending finish
