The AEGIS Compact Subwoofer is virtually omni-directional, so it can be
positioned in almost any location in the room. For the best performance in the
ideal room the AEGIS Compact Sub should be positioned in a corner of the
room or near a back wall. In certain circumstances the addition of a second
AEGIS Compact Sub located in another position in the room helps to achieve
a more uniform bass.
The use of two subwoofers often provides a greater than expected increase in
sound quality and bass dynamics, worth more than the additional cost would
suggest. If two AEGIS Compact Subwoofers are used they should ideally be
positioned in the corners near the respective units of the stereo loudspeaker
pair.
This subwoofer may be installed using the four rubber feet or spikes with lock
nuts, both supplied. Alternatively it may be placed directly onto the floor.
When positioned correctly ensure space is left to the rear of the AEGIS Compact
Sub since all operation switches are on the rear panel.
Connections
Check that both your amplifier and subwoofer are switched off before
connection. Failure to do so may result in speaker or amplifier damage. It is
sometimes recommended that over-long low cost cables are used initially to
facilitate experimentation with positioning, and only then purchase and install
using the final cable choice.
(For best results we would recommend our own AESC-C3 high performance
speaker cable with any Acoustic Energy loudspeaker.)

For use with amplifiers having a Subwoofer Out jack

‘Y’ connector to both inputs may be used). The stereo speakers are run
direct for higher definition.
