Acoustic Energy AE520 Floor-Standing Tower / pr.

AE520

The AE520 is a powerful, slim-line, floor-standing loudspeaker which builds on the AE500 and AE509 models to firmly establish itself as the brand’s new flagship, featuring multi-driver design, imposing size and performance.

The AE520 features two dedicated 5″ mid-range drivers, three low frequency drivers and a 1″ tweeter – all fashioned from carbon fiber to provide perfect tonal matching across the frequency range.

The two dedicated 5″ carbon fiber mid-drivers include new oversized 1.4″ voice coils for low thermal compression and optimum motor force factor. Both are mounted within their own dedicated sealed enclosure whilst the three dedicated low frequency drivers are reflex loaded by a large rear facing rectangular port. Designed to match the pistonic power and accuracy of our legendary ceramic aluminum drivers, these new units offer much improved self-damping for a smoother, more transparent sound.

Vertical directivity has been optimized to provide excellent vertical coverage whilst reducing the energy otherwise wasted on ceiling and floor reflections when compared to traditional designs.

The slim-line cabinets are finished in Piano Gloss Black, Piano Gloss White or American Walnut wood veneer finishes. Solid Aluminum bars are supplied to ensure rigid floor-coupling and maximum stability, whilst the stiffness of the metal structure reduces the room to speaker interaction.

PLiXiR FIERY Balanced Power Cord

THE FIERY – Balanced Power Cord

Our design goal for PLiXiR THE FIERY Balanced Power Cable was to provide extremely low noise power delivery that is flexible, for your hifi equipment at an exceptional price point. THE FIERY exceeded our expectations. Balanced in their design and multi-layered shielded from external noise, they are exceptional for your front end source and Head-fi equipment. They are also designed to be flexible for easy use in tight space situations. When used in conjunction with balanced power conditioners (such as our Elite and Elementa BAC) and isolation transformer based power conditioners, their balanced design maintains and increases the noise rejection of the balanced power delivery throughout the whole chain and right up to your equipment.

From our design and manufacture of the PLiXiR Elite and Elementa Balanced AC Power Conditioners, we discovered that conventional hi-fi power cable design with twisted 3-wire, Live, Neutral, Earth and their geometrical permutations, are actually singled ended in their power transmission design. While they work, they are not able to fully make use of the balanced power output from balanced conditioners to maintain the common mode noise reduction all the way to your equipment. The specific benefit of balanced power is lost at the output of the power conditioner (akin to single ended cable plugged into a balanced signal output). Shown above in 1 meter length, 15 amp as base price, for higher amperage and lengths see below step ups.

PLiXiR STATEMENT Balanced Power Cord

The new PLiXiR THE STATEMENT Balanced Power Cord is specifically designed for balanced power transmission to your hi-fi equipment. Utilizing thick gauged ultra-pure copper conductors and terminated with Furutech power connectors, this unique high-current balanced and clean-earth design ensures exceptional high current and low noise power delivery to your hi-fi system.

When used as a standard hi-fi power cable it is exceptional for its price and performance. However, when used in conjunction with balanced power conditioners such as the Elite Series models and isolation transformer-based power conditioners, their balanced design maintains and increases the noise rejection of the balanced power delivery throughout the whole chain and right up to your equipment. The STATEMENT comes in 3 lengths, starting at 15 Amp / 1 Meter (3.3 ft) shown as base price.

PLiXiR Elite BDC 2A / 4A / 6A Ultimate Linear DC Power Supply with 3-stage Noise Regulation.

PLiXiR Elite BDC Linear Balanced DC Power Supply is Designed to Reduce All The Noise Types Present in a DC Power Supply.

The Elite BDC range of balanced linear DC power supplies are our flagship cost-no-object product. Best in-class 3 stage design prevents noise from your equipment from polluting other hi-fi equipment in your setup.

Our ground-up approach begins with a balanced AC power design, along with a two-stage voltage regulation consisting of an open-loop first-stage pre-regulator and a close-loop feedback second stage.

Our unique balanced AC power circuit effectively removes ground loop noise and reduces the diode noise.

The first stage pre-regulation filters the bulk of the noise, specifically the high-frequency noise, and the heat from the second stage voltage regulator. The 2 stage regulation design as a “gate” to prevent the downstream noise from crossing back to the AC power hands.

Features:

Output voltage available from 9 Vdc to 30 Vdc. Available in: 110 Vac or 230 Vac input voltage
Less than 1mVrms residual noise at DC ouput. Output Current available in 2/4/6 Amps current continuous.
Includes one-meter-long PLiXiR High Current DC Power Cable with a choice of 1.3mm, 1.7mm, 2.1mm or 2.5mm DC plugs to mate with your equipment.
Black anodized, sandblasted aluminum
2.75″ H x 6.3″ W x 9.1″ D
