Acoustic Energy Speakers

Acoustic Energy Aego M Compact Speaker System

Equally at home in the office, dormroom, or city apartment, the Aego M delivers a big sound without taking up much space or requiring additional electronics.

With just one cable (included), the Aego-M System turns an iPod or any personal music device into a home entertainment system that can satisfy even critical listeners. Or use them with your stereo-link USB DAC to play music files or streaming programs from your PC.

For under $250, you get natural, room filling sound that rivals that of much more expensive systems. Unlike more conventional 2.1 (2 satellites and 1 subwoofer) multi-media speakers, the Aego M is built around a patented, advanced technology driver. These high excursion drivers are housed in heavy-alloy diecast enclosures to ensure the cleanest sound possible from such small speakers (just 4.5" tall and 2.5" wide). The subwoofer houses the built in 90W amplifier that provides the power to play both amazingly loud.

How do they sound?

side by side

Place the Aego M next to a conventional size bookshelf speaker (shown here next to the AE Aegis Evo 1, a ralatively compact speaker yet 25 times larger than the Aego M), and your friends will think you are tricking them. They won't believe such full sound is coming from the tiny Aego's, and will inevitably put their ear against the larger speaker in disbelief. Not only do the Aegos sound bigger and louder than you expect, they are also surprisingly accurate.

Here are what some reviewers have to say:

" I was drawn to the Aego M because it is built by a serious British speaker designer... (it) handily bests the Klipsch in dynamics, resolution, and overall balance... the Aego is an admirably low-noise system that doesn't induce a trace of listener fatigue. "

" (The Aego M) stands out for its excellent sound quality. In my testing room, with the bass switch set to 2, bass response was solid and extended lower than I expected; more important, the bass wasn't boomy, as it is with many computer speakers. Treble was exceptionally clear, and stereo imaging was impressive -- among the best I've heard from a system in this price range. The Aego M can also play extremely loud without distortion. I never found the Aego-M to be irritating or fatiguing. "

"...The sound they produce is full, crisp and clear. Whether it was vocal heavy, guiter filled or big beat the Aego Ms deal with it accurately and musically. The defining characteristic of the sound is that you can locate instruments in the sound stage easily."

About Acoustic Energy

Acoustic Energy, one of the UK's most respected speaker manufacturers, brought their first speaker to market in the late 1980's. That product, the AE1,was a truly compact monitor designed to satisfy the needs of professional recording engineers. Featuring their patented spun metal cone technology, the AE1 offered great accuracy, precise stereo imaging, dynamics, and transparency coupled with high power handling and linearity. Due to these product benefits, the AE1 acquired a global reputation as a great sounding "nearfield" monitor. And it also developed a following in high-end audio, the September 1988 Stereophile review stating: "I have to say that the AE1 is one of the finest, most transparent cone speakers I have heard". Over the years, the company has continued its focus on designs that outperform competitive speakers of similar size. In 2001 they introduced the Aego 2, one of the first serious speakers for computer use.

The Aego M is a lower cost successor of the Aego 2, and designed with both iPod and computer users in mind. It's THE solution for anyone wanting to upgrade their computer speakers, or hear the best from their iPod or mp3 player. And they are fully compatible with stereo-link DACs. Use them with your stereo-link as local speakers while simultaneous driving your home stereo system in another room.
