*We could have extended bass response even further, 40-Hz or lower, to excel at  "spec wars". Instead, we chose the 75Hz cutoff point to insure completely unlimited dynamic range capabilities with any music or soundtrack source material. The normal crossover frequency to the subwoofer in quality multi-channel systems is 80Hz. The Protege will provide a seamless transition to the high-quality subwoofer(s) of your choice.

Protege Raves . . .

" From top to bottom, the Proteges are by far the best, most balanced speaker I have ever heard in my room. I really found no fault with them what so ever. And I am VERY picky about my sound, especially when it comes to music. They are sealed speakers and need to be used with a quality sub. If you do, they will blend seamlessly (assuming proper calibration of course). I can not recommend the Proteges enough."   Patrick Stevenson

Protege V Notes...

  • Exceptional musicality, accuracy, transparency and dynamics

  • Gorgeous, hand built ACI quality

  • Vertically aligned drivers precisely match the Protege center

  • In multi-channel systems the Protege V will match seamlessly with other ACI speaker systems

  • Semi-shielded for close placement within approx. 3-6" to TV screens

  • As in all ACI products, the finest drivers are used with extensively engineered and tested precision crossover networks. 

  • The cabinets are built to be extremely inert with extensive internal bracing. The midrange chamber is specially shaped and damped. 

  • All design and quality aspects combine to yield absolute state-of-the-art sonics. 

  • The use of the finest lacquers and hardwoods results in a cabinet of exceptional beauty and durability.
