Product description
Carbon fibre throughout — the 25 mm dome and both 125 mm mid/bass cones — arranged as an MTM so the acoustic source stays small through the crossover region. AE went to carbon to match the pistonic behaviour of the ceramic aluminium drivers it was known for while damping the ringing that came with them. The cabinet is the constrained-layer RSC construction from the Reference Series.
