Acoustic Energy A Ego 5 - Manual (Page 3)

As with all loudspeakers, the placement in
relationship to room boundaries (walls etc.) will have
a major effect on their overall performance. As the
Aego Satellites are so small your choice of positions
is far greater and you should use this to maximize
the performance of these remarkable little speakers.
If a speaker is positioned in free air (not close to any
walls etc.) then it will sound brighter. If mounted on
or close to a large object (such as a table or on a
wall) then the mid range will become louder and the
speaker will sound warmer and more powerful.
In most situations we would recommend that the
satellites are mounted on walls at about head height
with the brackets provided to give you a warm
powerful sound that you will find pleasing and
comfortable. However if this is not possible then
Aego Speaker Stands are available from your dealer.

go in to standby mode
if no signal is detected
for a period of time
(10 minutes).
It will automatically
switch back on when
a signal is detected.

This can be altered to
obtain preferred level
of bass.
Sub output
This output is available
to supply an auxiliary
subwoofer such as the
“Acoustic Energy
Aegis Compact Sub”.
This may be
recommended when
used in a large room.
Volume knob
This is the main volume
control for all channels.
When used with a
decoder it would
normally be set to
maximum, This enables
the Aego5 system to be
used with DVD players
that have a built in
decoder but no overall
volume control.
