Oct 30, 2015 · The Model 5T reflects the larger and more expensive Model 6T and Model 7T designs. It shares the same curved cabinet construction, high gloss finish, the same tweeter, similar woofer refinement, and tight-tolerance crossover componentry and wiring.

May 8, 2017 · You don’t need to be a connoisseur of compact loudspeakers to recognize that the Aerial Acoustics Model 5T is quite a looker. Short (a mere 15″ in height), dark, and handsome, it’s a gracefully proportioned two-way in a bass-reflex configuration.

Feb 21, 2017 · Long-lived loudspeaker models are rare. So it's surprising that the two-way, stand-mounted Model 5, the smallest speaker made by Massachusetts-based Aerial Acoustics, was revised just once between 2015 and April 1997, when Robert Harley favorably reviewed it and it cost $1800/pair.

Although replacing the popular and respected 5B, the 5T is a completely new design. It offers significant and measureable improvements in system sensitivity, dynamics, treble delicacy, midrange transparency, and bass extension.

The Aerial 5T features a 1” woven ring-dome dual-magnet tweeter from the 7T, along with a new 6.7” long-stroke papyrus-blend driver custom-made for the 5T. With the optimized high-order multi-element crossover, the result a smooth frequency response from 48 Hz to 23 kHz.

Apr 25, 1997 · One of the fundamental tenets of high-end audio is that a loudspeaker's bass output should be appropriate for the listening room's size. The smaller the room, the less bass the loudspeakers should produce.

Aug 22, 2016 · I know this thread has been inactive for a few years but it seems the 5T is still a current model. I'm curious if anyone has ever listened to the 5T and also listened to the Usher Dancer Mini-X DMD. That's what I'm using now in a 9 ft by 12 ft room with an ATC P1 Pro amp.
