Acoustic Energy AE22

New Chip Off an Old Block..

Fast, chunky, atmospheric, detailed, and most of all, eminently exciting

Treble can be pushed to brittleness ; look and feel like they belong in a studio, which they do

These are genuinely great speakers with loads to recommend them, but the studio looks and excitable treble won’t suit everyone

A breathtaking all-round performer ; goes loud and deep ; value

Appearance is divisive ; forthright presentation is not for all ; easily marked finish

An unusually talented pair of speakers. Judged solely on sonic ability per pound, they’re very hard to match

Refreshing design stance could be considered a basis for a cool system with PA and party leanings. Analytical in-yer-face sound capable of jolting the recipient into joyful listening

Quirky design and large enclosure not to everyone's taste. Mid frequencies slightly laid-back at low amplitudes

EAse of use sound quality

None Really
