Thank you for purchasing this Acoustic Energy product. As a valued customer
we would like to keep you up to date with all news and events including new
products, exhibitions and exclusive promotions. To enable us to communicate
these exciting developments please go to our website - www.acoustic-energy.co.uk
- and complete the ownership registration form.
Perhaps more than any other hi-fi product, speakers are sensitive to installation
so please take a little time to read this manual and to follow, as far as practical,
the installation guidelines it contains. Careful installation will help ensure that
your Aegis Neo Subwoofer performs optimally. Should you have any questions not
covered here we are happy to try and answer them either by telephone or email.
Contact information can be found in Section 10.
The Aegis Neo Subwoofer is a relatively delicate
precision engineered product that can be damaged
by inappropriate handling. It is also large and heavy.
Please take great care therefore when unpacking or
moving it. Plan any handling in advance of carrying
it out - ideally with a second person to help. Please
take care when unpacking or moving the subwoofer
not to touch the driver. Damage to a driver will at best
degrade the Aegis Neo Subwoofer’s performance and
at worst result in its complete failure.
The enclosure surfaces should also be handled
sympathetically. Any cleaning should only require a
soft cloth, slightly dampened if necessary. Do not use
any polishes or solvent based cleaning agents.
The packaging should be retained for future use.
1. Introduction
2. Handling
Important Safety Instructions
Ensure that your Aegis Neo Subwoofer is set to the appropriate mains input voltage before
it is connected to a mains socket. The warranty does not cover damage caused by incorrect
mains voltage.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug. A grounding type plug has
two blades and a third grounding prong. The third prong is provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled
with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
16. The MAINS plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain
readily operable.
17. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or
moisture.
Following this introduction, the Manual is divided into
sections covering handling, installation, positioning,
connecting, controls and system setup, specifications,
matching products, warranty and contact information.
We recommend that you read at least the first six of
these sections carefully before installing and using
your Aegis Neo Subwoofer. We would also draw your
attention to the Important Safety Instructions on this
page.
Finally, please enjoy your Aegis Neo Subwoofer, but
remember it is capable of generating high volume
levels of low frequency sound, so please also be
considerate of your neighbours.

3. Installation
The Aegis Neo Subwoofer is intended to be used in
either stereo audio music systems or multi-channel
audio-visual (home theatre) systems. Although it is
intended primarily to partner other products in the
Aegis Neo range it may also be used successfully with
alternative loudspeakers.
The Aegis Neo Subwoofer should be fitted with either
floor spikes or rubber feet. Floor spikes offer the
highest potential performance and should be fitted
if the subwoofer is to be placed on a carpeted floor.
If spikes are inappropriate for your floor covering,
metal protection pads, coins for example, may be used
between the spike and the floor.
Note: Damage to the drive unit may result if the Aegis
Neo Subwoofer is placed face down on the floor.
The rubber feet or M8 floor spikes and lock-nuts
should be fitted to the underside of the subwoofer
once it has been moved near its final location.
Carefully lay the subwoofer on its side to gain access
to the tapped holes in the underside. If the rubber feet
are to be used, simply screw them into the tapped
holes and return the subwoofer to upright. If floor
spikes are to be used, screw a spike and lock-nut into
each hole leaving a length of spike extending beyond
the lock-nut so that when the subwoofer is upright the
lock-nuts will “float” just above the floor covering.
Tighten three of the lock-nuts with a 13mm spanner leaving one lock-nut finger-
tight to aid adjustment once the subwoofer is upright in its final position. Once the
final position has been established adjust the length of the loose spike so that the
subwoofer is vertical and does not rock. If the floor is particularly uneven it may be
necessary to loosen one of the tightened spikes to ensure that the subwoofer can
be levelled.
Finally, tighten all loose lock-nuts. It may be necessary to re-adjust to minimise rock
once the subwoofer has settled on the floor. Take care when installing floor spikes.
They are sharp and can cause injury or pierce electrical cables.
The Aegis Neo Subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and may cause picture
distortion if located too close to a CRT screen. Contact your dealer, installer or
Acoustic Energy for advice.
4. Positioning
The position of the speakers in a home theatre installation will have great influence
over its performance. It is worth spending some time experimenting both with the
finer points of speaker positioning, as well as the larger scale issues of room layout.
Diagram One over the page illustrates an idealised general home theatre speaker
layout.
If you are already familiar with the characteristics of your room, and the way
speakers perform in it, you may already have a good feel for where to position your
Aegis Neo Subwoofer. However, installing any new component provides a good
opportunity to review an existing set-up and perhaps make improvements.
In principle there is great freedom of position of a sub-woofer in a listening room. In
practice, however, the performance will be fundamentally influenced by the room
and position. Small changes of location, or of the acoustic character of items in the
immediate vicinity of the subwoofer, can significantly influence its performance.
Initially choose a site for the Aegis Neo Subwoofer along one of the walls of the
listening room well away, but not equidistant, from the corners. It is not necessary
that the subwoofer be positioned along the same wall as the main speakers. Chose
a solid wall (rather than a partition) and keep the subwoofer clear of any large
resonant objects - furniture panels, heating radiators, etc.
Don’t worry if, thanks to the architecture or layout of your room, it is not practical to
follow these guidelines exactly. The most important thing is to experiment with the
different options that are practical and find the best one.
Once your Aegis Neo Subwoofer is working, and you begin to become familiar with
its performance, it is likely to be worthwhile experimenting a little more with its
positioning. For example, moving the Aegis Neo Subwoofer towards a room corner
will increase the level of low bass. This gain may however be at the expense of bass
definition and consistency over the listening area.
