The new flagship from Acoustic Energy.

In developing the Corinium, Acoustic Energy has re-examined every aspect of the design providing better detail, dynamics and transparency while still adhering to the Acoustic Energy sound and unbridled musicality. This is not an upgraded 500 series, but a brand-new design from the ground up.

Features:

New lightweight carbon fibre bass driver with an ideal combination of stiffness and damping
Low hysteresis motor system providing improved efficiency, speed and performance
Very low frequency port bass tuning allows for the positive characteristics of a sealed enclosure (speed, slam and rhythm) while still having the compact nature and improved power handling of a bass reflex design
New tweeter developed from a synthetic polyester material called Tetoron providing similar mass to a very lightweight silk tweeter, but with more stiffness resulting in a more open and clean sound
Shallow waveguide results in wide directivity while preventing diffraction from the speaker edges
Neutral and very low colouration midrange driver covering five octaves allows for a less aggressive crossover slope for lower phase shift
Dedicated vented chamber for the midrange driver
Improved low phase crossover for superior time domain performance
Crossover features high quality air core inductors, metalized polypropylene film capacitors and metal oxide resistors
Audiophile-grade oxygen free copper cable from Wireworld specifically developed for internal wiring featuring a patented layout of conductors for neutrality and openness
Curved cabinet featuring a hybrid Resonance Suppression Composite (RSC) with thicknesses varying from 22mm to 45mm and a 6mm ultra rigid aluminium front baffle housing the drivers
4-degree tilt improving time alignment of the drivers
Curved cabinet reduces diffraction compared to a large flat radiating area and provides a beautiful aesthetic in the listening space
Front baffle consists of 25mm MDF with a 6mm aluminum plate for superb stiffness
Tweeter is mounted directly to the aluminum baffle to provide some isolation from the resonance of the midrange and bass drivers
Similar high-quality stable bar and spike arrangement to the 500 series effective at draining waste energy and providing a time alignment tilt by employing shorter rear spikes

Placement:

Approx. 18 – 24 inches from the rear wall with moderate tow-in to be able to see some of the inner sides of the cabinet and pointing past you and not directly at you.
Sidewall distance is ideally 2 metres, but a minimum of 1 metre is adequate.
Use the supplied spikes for carpeted floors with the protectors underneath for hardwood floors.
Seating height ideally with ear at the midrange level.

Amplification:

To experience the full dynamics and performance, utilize an amplifier of 100W or greater into 8 ohms.
If you only listen to low levels, an amplifier with lower power may be sufficient.
