Acoustic Energy AE105 On-wall Speaker Available Now
Acoustic Energy adds AE105 On-wall model to their new 100 Series of loudspeakers.
Acoustic Energy's AE105 on-wall loudspeaker follows the new 100 Series launch earlier this year, from which the AE100 MkII bookshelves have already impressed us. This versatile, 2-way loudspeaker is primarily designed for wall mounting; however, Acoustic Energy states the AE105 is equally suited to a bookcase or shelf position.
The AE105 features a soft dome tweeter with a WDT waveguide alongside a pair of 130mm paper cone drivers, one acting as a passive radiator for improved bass performance, enabling them to cover a quoted 55Hz-26kHz frequency range from the 450 x 200 x 120mm (HxWxD) units. The crossover is at 3kHz with Acoustic Energy stating 91dB sensitivity.
Optimised for vertical wall mounting with the listening position at or below the tweeter axis, the AE105 promises to enhance the stereo sound from your TV. Additionally, you can install them as Front L/R, Centre channels as part of a home cinema set-up, partnered with the matching AE1082 compact sub-woofer.
The Acoustic Energy AE105 come finished in a choice of black, white or walnut vinyl veneers, and are supplied with a rear mounting plate, template, wall spacers, and black and light grey grilles for easy integration within any room décor.
Acoustic Energy's AE105 retails for £224.99 (each) and is also available in 2.1 and 5.1 packages with the matching AE1082 active subwoofer.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
