Teased back in July but only just confirmed, Acoustic Energy's “most significant loudspeaker to date” will be making a special appearance at the UK Audio Show 2023 ahead of its official launch. Corinium is the latest addition to the British speaker maker's lineup of loudspeakers and, so we are told, is the culmination of a three-year project for the company's in-house design team.

The result is a next-generation floorstanding loudspeaker, which the brand predicts will elevate Acoustic Energy into the high-end sector and “set further new standards in sound, design and value”.

Corinium starts with the same carbon fibre drivers used in the 500 Series, offering a good blend of mass, stiffness and damping. However, AE knew they could go further, we're told. A new cone design was specially developed with a low hysteresis motor system to provide the best efficiency and greatest possible performance… leading the company to its second generation of carbon fibre drivers. One 120mm carbon fibre driver performs midrange duties, while two 140mm carbon fibre bass drivers take care of the lower frequencies.

The 29mm tweeter features a soft dome encased in a synthetic polyester material called Tetoron. This newly developed tweeter design has now proven to lower colouration, they say, and “increase delicate high-speed transients and reproduce the very finest detail and refinement”.

Sounds too good to miss? Well, head over to Staverton Park in Daventry on October 7th and 8th for the UK Audio Show 2023, where you will find Acoustic Energy in the Chelmsford Suite on the first floor.

As well as the show-stopping Corinium, we are promised a selection of other loudspeakers on display, from the compact AE1002 to the Applause Award-winning AE520 floorstanders.
